Hi @JMcQuaid, When you say short code, are you referring to the embed code? You should be able to find it by following these steps: [Set up and style a legacy form on an external site](https://knowledge.hubspot.com/forms/how-can-i-share-a-hubspot-form-if-im-using-an-external-site) In short, when you open the form editor, you should see an _Embed_ button in the top right corner. Click it to access the code. ![karstenkoehler_0-1702837315268.png](https://d2qpr2jzcazej7.cloudfront.net/original/3X/7/3/73aefaffa9dae0510e85a20309d3e38b7b05c0b3.png) Best regards! ---

@JMcQuaid just to confirm then, you’re referring to WordPress and pop up forms? You didn’t mention this in your original request. The ID from your short code is also the string that appears in the address bar / URL when you open a pop up form in HubSpot. ---

@JMcQuaid I need you to reply to my questions. If you don’t do that, this’ll take a lot longer than it has to. Open the pop up form in HubSpot. When you’re in the editor, check the address bar in your browser. In the URL, you should spot the ID which you can copy and paste into the code you shared previously. ---

Yes for WordPress
