Would you like to display a list of all forms created with WPForms on your site? Whether you want to show this list publicly or on a password-protected page, you can easily create it using a custom shortcode.

This guide will show you how to create and use a shortcode that displays all your created forms in a simple list format.

## Creating the Shortcode

First, you’ll need to add this code snippet to your site. This snippet creates a shortcode that you can use on any post, page, or widget area on your site to display a list of all the forms created with WPForms.

If you need any help in adding code snippets to your site, take a look at our tutorial on [adding custom JavaScript or PHP code in WPForms](https://wpforms.com/developers/how-to-add-custom-php-or-javascript-for-wpforms/).

This code works by:

- Creating a new shortcode named `wpforms_all_forms`
- Retrieving all published WPForms from your site and extracting the form titles
- Displaying them in a list with line breaks between each form

## Displaying a List of Forms created with WPForms

Once you’ve added the snippet above to create the shortcode, you’ll need to add this shortcode to a page, post or widget area on your site in order for the list of WPForms to display.

For our tutorial, we’re not using a page builder but [WordPress Gutenberg Shortcode block](https://wordpress.org/support/article/shortcode-block/ "Shortcode Block") to add in our shortcode to the page.

Simply add `[wpforms_all_forms]` to the page and click **Publish** and you’ll now see a complete list of your WPForms available.

Please check with your specific page builder’s documentation to find out how best to add a shortcode to a page.

And that’s it! You’ve now created a shortcode that you can use to display a list of all your forms created with WPForms. Would you like to also create a shortcode to display a list of entries for each form?
