How to Display a Form on the Front End
The JetFormBuilder plugin offers wide flexibility in displaying a form on the front end. After a form is created in WordPress Dashboard > JetFormBuilder > Forms, it can be shown anywhere on the website.
To display a form in Elementor, Block Editor, or Bricks Builder, a JetForm widget, block, or element can be used, respectively. Outputting a form in other WordPress page builders is possible with a shortcode. Below, we will go into this process in detail.
