Wrote new wiki on WordPress frontend forms
June 04, 2012, 01:39:32 pm
After wrestling with this myself a bit, I realized there really wasn't any documentation of how to link to WordPress forms in the front end (particularly for a client with a funky front page template in its theme). 

I've come to the conclusion that the simplest way of understanding how CiviCRM pages appear in WordPress is that CiviCRM hijacks whatever page you tack the URL arguments onto, stripping out the content and replacing it with the form.

I've posted the wiki at
http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC41/Displaying+Public+Forms+in+WordPress+Frontend+Sites

(I also wish there was a better place to put it, but at least it's there next to the equivalent Joomla documentation.)

Take care,

Andrew
