Before you get started, be sure to [install and activate the WPForms plugin](https://wpforms.com/docs/install-wpforms-plugin/ "How to Install the WPForms Plugin"). Your Ninja Forms plugin must also still be installed on your site.

### Importing Forms from Ninja Forms

To open our form importer tool, go to **WPForms** » **Tools**. Once there, scroll to the section titled **Import from Other Form Plugins**.

In the importer dropdown, select Ninja Forms as your previous form plugin. Once you’ve done so, click the **Import** button.

Next, you’ll be able to select which specific forms you’d like to bring in from Ninja Forms. Under the **Available Forms** column, you’ll see all the detected forms. Any forms you select here will be added to the **Forms to Import** column.

When you’ve selected all the forms you’d like to import, click the **Import** button.

When the import is complete, you’ll see a success message as well as quick links to edit or preview any imported forms.

If a field isn’t compatible, the importer tool will notify you that it couldn’t be imported.

Our importer tool will also copy notification email and confirmation settings from your existing forms into your new WPForms. For more details on customizing these settings, be sure to check out our tutorials on [setting up notification emails](https://wpforms.com/docs/setup-form-notification-wpforms/ "How to Set Up Form Notifications in WPForms") and [choosing confirmation settings](https://wpforms.com/docs/setup-form-confirmation-wpforms/ "How to Set Up Form Confirmation in WPForms").

**Note:** Please always review and [test your imported forms](https://wpforms.com/docs/how-to-properly-test-your-wordpress-forms-before-launching-checklist/) to be sure everything is working properly before adding them to a live page or post.

Once you’ve reviewed your imported forms, you can go ahead and embed them in your WordPress site.

### Displaying Your Forms in WordPress

To replace your old forms with your new imported forms, you’ll need to swap out your Ninja Forms blocks with WPForms blocks.

To do this, open the page editor where an existing form is embedded. Click on the Ninja Forms block and press the Delete key on your keyboard, or click on the three-dot icon in the block toolbar and select **Remove Ninja Form**.

Search for “WPForms” in the search bar on the left, or scroll down to the **Widgets** section of the block library. Click on **WPForms**.

### Frequently Asked Questions

In this section, we’ll cover some of the most frequently asked questions about importing forms from Ninja Forms to WPForms.

#### Why doesn’t my Ninja Forms conditional logic work in WPForms?

Because different forms use different conditional logic rules, they are not imported along with your fields, notification settings, and confirmation settings. You will need to recreate your Ninja Forms conditional logic in WPForms.

Check out our tutorial on [using conditional logic in WPForms](https://wpforms.com/docs/how-to-use-conditional-logic-with-wpforms/) to get started.

#### Does WPForms import Ninja Forms calculations?

No, WPForms will not import Ninja Forms calculations.

You can use our Total field to display customers’ total costs in [product order forms](https://wpforms.com/how-to-create-a-simple-order-form-in-wordpress/). You will need a paid license to access this feature.
