 * Hi there
 * I have just put a gravity forms form within the column shortcode like so:
 * [row]
    [column lg=”6″ md=”6″ sm=”6″ xs=”12″ ] [gravityform id=”1″ name=”Contact”
   title=”false” description=”false” ajax=”true”] [/column] [/row]
 * The form does not validate when within this shortcode. Take it out of the shortcode
   and it works fine. Is there a reason for this and is there a fix?
 * Cheers

 * I cannot supply a link at this time as the website is in development locally 
   and contains sensitive data.
 * In the mean time I have marked up the columns using divs and classes instead 
   of shortcode and that works fine.
 * I can probably get a test site up to illustrate the problem. Is there nothing
   you guys can check without me having to do this? Let me know.
