Can this be made in wordpress?

  • I was wondering if we already have a plugin that can do this;

    *Allowing users to upload files in front-end of the website; (Similar form as shown in picture)

    *Then these files go to moderation area where they will be checked by a moderator before publishing them on the website frontend.

    *Ability to customise the front-end display of the files like the pic shown below;

    Preview of the website I’m talking about is: https://www.gta5-mods.com

    I know the theme is made in bootstrap but am unable to know if such thing can be made in wordpress (functionality). Would appreciate some help!

    Cheers.

    The Gravity Forms plugin can be used to build a front-end form that (after moderation) creates a post, and that post can have a Featured Image.

    See this explanation: https://gravitywiz.com/use-gravity-forms-to-create-user-submitted-posts/

    Might also be worth checking out Ninja Forms, which I think can do something similar.

    The form/page could be hidden from non-users.

    Is there a way we can modify how the display of form data is? Like shown in above picture.

    Yes, but how experienced are you at creating or editing themes?

    An online form can gather the data, but you’d have to create/edit a theme to put that data in place.

    Some things you would probably need to know:

    – html and css, a bit of php
    – how the loop works
    – custom post types
    – custom fields
    – template tags
    – conditional tags

    If you know some of this stuff, you can learn the rest. It’s all in the Codex, but you’ve got some reading up to do!

    I have a plugin called User Submitted Posts that also fits the requirements:

    You’ll still need to learn the basics of theme editing if you’re going to be using WordPress to build stuff, but User Submitted Posts is a drop-in solution for posting front-end content. Hopefully it helps!

    I have few questions:

    *Can we modify the look of the posts in the front end?
    *Can we track downloads through your plugin?
    *Can we use filtering to sort out stuff like ‘Most downloads, latest uploaded
    *Can we use custom post types? (Like the one we see in Gravity Forms)
    etc..

    Would be nice if you could answer it,
    Cheers.

    Glad to help:

    “Can we modify the look of the posts in the front end?”

    You can do this by editing your theme template (see Jason’s previous comment).

    “Can we track downloads through your plugin?”

    User Submitted Posts does front-end uploads; it does not have anything to do with downloads. But there are other plugins that can monitor downloads if needed.

    “Can we use filtering to sort out stuff like ‘Most downloads, latest uploaded etc..”

    Again, USP is a front-end post submission plugin, which it does very well. For any download-related stuff, I recommend searching the WP Plugin Directory.
