Insert the shortcode manually

[frm-show-entry id=x]

'x' = ID of the entry to display

Parameters

Required

• id - The id of the entry to display. If you are using this shortcode inside of a View you can use id=[id].

Optional

• plain_text - By default, this shortcode displays the content in a table. You can remove the HTML and display only the text by including plain_text=1.
  

  [frm-show-entry id=x plain_text=1]

• user_info - Display user information in the table, including IP address, browser, and referring URL.
  

  [frm-show-entry id=x user_info=1]

• include_blank - Include blank fields in the displayed content.
  

  [frm-show-entry id=x include_blank=1]

• include_extras - By default, page breaks, headings, and HTML fields aren't included in this shortcode. You can include any/all of them as shown here:
  

  [frm-show-entry id=x include_extras="page, section, html"]

• include_fields - Only include specific fields in the displayed content.
  

  [frm-show-entry id=x include_fields="10,15"]

• exclude_fields - Exclude specific fields in the displayed content.
  

  [frm-show-entry id=x exclude_fields="10,15"]

• show_image - If a file upload field is included, show any images with show_image=1. By default, the image url will be displayed.
  

  [frm-show-entry id=x show_image=1]

• show_filename - When an image is displayed with show_image, include the filename as well.
  

  [frm-show-entry id=x show_image=1 show_filename=1]

• add_link - Link to the full-sized image. This may be used in conjunction with show_image=1 and/or show_filename=1.
  

  [frm-show-entry id=x show_image=1 show_filename=1 add_link=1]

• direction - By default the entry is displayed field names in the left column and entries in the right column. Switch those columns by using this shortcode:
  

  [frm-show-entry id=x direction=rtl]

• font_size - Determine the size of the font.
  

  [frm-show-entry id=x font_size="25px"]

• text_color - Determine the color of the text.
  

  [frm-show-entry id=x text_color="b642f4"]

• border_width - Determine the width of the border.
  

  [frm-show-entry id=x border_width="1px"]

• border_color - Determine the color of the border.
  

  [frm-show-entry id=x border_color="000000"]

• bg_color - Determine the color of the background.

  [frm-show-entry id=x alt_bg_color="eeeeee"]

• line_breaks - Remove automatic line breaks from paragraph fields.
  

  [frm-show-entry id=x line_breaks="0"]

• format - Specify which format the entry should be returned in. By default, the entry will be returned in a table (format=text). The other options include format=json and format=array. These alternative formats are best to use directly in php instead of using the shortcode on a page.
• array_separator - Use a different separator for multiple checkboxes or dropdown values. By default, this will be a comma separator.

  [frm-show-entry id=x array_separator="<br/>"]

PHP Alternative

echo FrmProEntriesController::show_entry_shortcode( array( 'id' => x, 'plain_text' => 0, 'format' => 'text' ) );

'x' = ID of the entry you want to display

Get an entry array

$entry = FrmProEntriesController::show_entry_shortcode( array( 'id' => x, 'format' => 'array' ) );

'x' = ID of the entry you want to display
