How can I allow users to upload content on my WordPress?

Hello dear support team,

I have created new WordPress on my local server, now I want to create a content upload form for registered users so they can upload books on my website.

The problem is I have created a simple form using ‘contact form 7’ plugin but this and other plugins like this only send me the email of that content, I want to allow users to post directly.

Can you guide me how can I do this?

Is there any plugin which does this work for me? or do I have to write my own code? If so what I should learn to make my own form?

Thank you

Hi there,
You would have to create a custom post type first. That would probably be called “books” and have some fields like “author”, “genre” and so on, I would guess.
You can use plugins to help you with that. Just google how to create a custom post type and you should find lots of info on that.

To have users create posts, you could use Toolset CRED, which is not the cheapest possible solution but will do exactly what you need and if you decide on using that, you would also have a custom post type generator integrated in toolset.

I already did this once with GravityForms and Gravity Forms + Custom Post types Plugin, which is much cheaper.

I’m sure there are other ways to do this but this is what I have tried so far.
Good luck
Regards
