Display a Single Entry in a Table

Use this shortcode to display the content from an entry in a table. The presentation of data is not customizable in this shortcode. If you need more control, you can create a View.

Use the shortcode builder

1. Go to a WordPress page or post.
2. Click on the 'Formidable' button above the content box.
   
3. Click 'Single Entry' then insert the entry ID/key and select from the options below.
   
4. Click the ‘Insert into Post’ button.

Insert the shortcode manually

Display the content from an entry by inserting the following shortcode on a page, post, View, or in an HTML field in a form.

[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"]

• 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 bg_color="ffffff"]

• alt_bg_color - Determine the background color of the alternating rows.
  

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

• 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.

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
