Form picker not rendering form on page
Hiya,

Trying to use the Form Picker datatype.

This is what I have do so far...
1. Install Contour etc.. I know this to be working as I currently have 2 other forms on the site.
2. Created 7 other forms that will be picked on a couple of other pages via the form picker.
3. Ive tried calling in my "quickQuestionPicker" firstly as an umbraco:Item with the result of only getting the GUID displayed on the page.
4. Ive also tried it as part of a macro with the same GUID result displayed...
Question is, how do I get the form to display. I suspect there is something simple I have missed but any pointers would be great. Thanks.

Hi,

You'll need a macro tag to output the form since the form picker will only store the GUID, but you can pass that guid to the macro by using an advanced macro param syntax

So instead of a fixed guid set the param to [#propertyAlias]

Oh I see... I think it was because I got it into my head it was like a macro container.

Many Thanks.
