Form Grid Block

The GiveWP Form Grid Block provides a way to add a grid layout of multiple forms into posts and pages using the new WordPress editor. All of the configuration settings are built right into the block editor.

Give Donation Form Grid
The donation form grid with modal enabled allows for quick giving.

Say you would like a page to display a number of your site’s donation forms in a nice easy-to-see way. This will help your donors more clearly decide which form to donate to. This block can display a modal window donation form that pops up, or redirect your donors to that form page. Donation goals and featured images can be added to help convey the need for each form.

When the Form Grid block is selected all of the forms on the site will display within the block. Using the configuration settings will control which forms show and which do not.
