Adding a spreadsheet

    Is it possible to add a Google spreadsheet – that people can edit and submit from my WP site?
    No matter whether I put the public url or the shared url in the ‘Add form’ I get an 404 error. How do I add my spreadsheet?

    If it’s only for forms is there a similar brilliant plugin to embed Google spreadsheets?

    Thanks for any helpful answers 🙂

    You can actually use the Google Forms plugin to display a spreadsheet within WordPress. This was something that another user had discovered a while ago. I wrote up a post on it on my web site which covers the background and links to the threads on the Support Forum.

    There is another post on my web site from one of the beta releases where I describe some of the improvements I added to the plugin to support spreadsheets.

    So yes, you can use Google Forms to display a spreadsheet on your WordPress site HOWEVER I have never tried using an editable version of the spreadsheet and would not expect it to work.

    So in summary: A read-only view? Yes. A read-write view? Never tried but don’t think it will work.

    Ok. I think I will have to try something else, sadly, as your plugin looks great. But thanks for a quick reply.
