i want to present to authors who register to my site a custom “add new post” page. I mean when they try to make a new post they will click the posts->add new and they will be presented with specific fields to fill. Like filling a custom form with textboxes and dropdown lists.
If anyone can give me some ideas..
Thank you
Perhaps one of these plugins will work for you… Or at least might give you a good start for what you’re looking for. The idea behind these is that you can simply edit content on the “front end” of your site (without getting into the WordPress back end).
These plugins may or may not integrate with WordPress’s built-in registration (author) authentication. If not, I’m sure you could wrap the code in an author logged in check.
This plugin looks good for giving authors the ability to include an “About Me” section in the footer of their article:
If you aren’t familiar with WordPress development and are interested in learning, I’d recommend getting the book Digging Into WordPress (and accompanying blog). Otherwise I’m sure you can hire a developer to implement what you need.
