WS Form PRO - Post Management

Managing post submissions through the WordPress backend can be difficult when contributors need a more direct way to add or edit content. This plugin lets you create front-end forms for post creation and updates, so contributors can submit content through a form. It supports standard posts and custom post types, with controls for draft, pending, and published status.

Forms can map fields to post fields, custom fields, and taxonomies, and can use WordPress post metadata and featured images. Conditional logic and validation let you shape form behavior based on user input or roles. You can also set access levels for authors, editors, and contributors, configure email alerts and submission actions, and handle existing posts through forms.

Features

• Front-end post forms: Build forms for creating and editing posts on the front end, giving contributors a way to submit content without using backend interfaces.
• Post type and status controls: Work with standard posts and custom post types, and set submissions to draft, published, or pending status to suit your editorial process.
• Map fields to post data: Connect form fields with post fields, custom fields, and taxonomies. Forms can also use WordPress post metadata and featured images.
• Conditional rules and validation: Set conditions that change form behavior based on user input or user roles, and validate submitted data for content approval workflows.
