## 🧩 Step 2: Insert Shortcode into a Page or Post

You can add the shortcode into:

- **Gutenberg Block Editor** – use a **Shortcode block**.
- **Classic Editor** – paste directly into the editor.
- **Elementor or Other Builders** – use an **HTML or shortcode widget**.

Example:

```
[simple_form id="2"]
```

This will display your form inline wherever you place it.

## 🪄 Step 3: Use Shortcode Parameters (Position & Theme)

The **Simple Form shortcode** supports **advanced parameters** for customization.

### 🔹 Add Form Position:

You can display the form in different positions on your page:

```
[simple_form id="2" position="bottom-right"]
```

Available positions:

- `bottom-right`
- `bottom-left`
- `inline`

### 🔹 Add Form Theme:

You can also change the theme directly using a parameter:

```
[simple_form id="2" theme="theme-2"]
```

Combine both parameters:

```
[simple_form id="2" position="bottom-right" theme="theme-2"]
```

This shortcode will show a **floating form at the bottom-right** corner with **Theme 2 (Fresh Green)**.
