Sift + WordPress
Add AI-Powered Form Extraction to Your WordPress Site
How it works
Sift provides a lightweight JavaScript widget that you embed on any WordPress page. When visitors submit the form, Sift's AI extracts structured data from their responses in real time. You can add the widget using a Custom HTML block in the WordPress editor, a shortcode in a text widget, or by pasting the snippet into your theme's template files. No WordPress plugin installation required.
Setup guide
Copy the Sift widget embed code from your Sift dashboard (it's a single <script> tag with your form ID).
In WordPress, edit the page where you want the form and add a Custom HTML block.
Paste the Sift embed code into the HTML block.
Publish or update the page and verify the form renders correctly.
Optionally, add the snippet to your theme's header.php or footer.php for site-wide availability.
Data mapping
| Sift Field | WordPress Field | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Widget: Form ID | WordPress: Page / Post | Each Sift form has a unique ID embedded in the widget code. Place different form IDs on different WordPress pages. |
| Widget: Theme | WordPress: Site Design | The Sift widget inherits your site's font stack by default, or you can customise its appearance with CSS overrides. |
| Widget: Callback URL | WordPress: Thank You Page | Configure a redirect URL in the widget settings to send users to a WordPress thank-you page after submission. |
