Missing functions that I would really like to see

    Hello,

    I would like to ask few things if they gonna be available:

    1. If there gonna be a way to choose, if there should be seen a tinyMCE editor for users that doesnt know html.

    2. custom taxonomy has more options to choose (radio buttons, multiple, etc.)
    (even though this way you did this is also amazing and well done)
    3. the ability to put new words into the custom taxonomy (so far I couldnt add anything new, just choose from already created). It would be best to be able to limit also user roles, who could do it and who not.

    4. Option for choosing Width and Height for text area and text elements. (in form of optional attributes for the shortcode tag for custom taxonomy perhaps?)

    5. Im using 2 forms, one for posting, while only the owners and admin can edit the post. But then, I would all users could edit just certain stuff(one custom field?), so I create a new form and link it to the post. Is this possible?
    -Basically the mage edit would not even request the ID of the post, but also the ID of the form, so I can choose which edit button edit what.

    6. Since I run it on my development website, I didnt check yet, But hopefully your plugin recognize more roles and I can choose even in the roles I created myself.

    7. Is there no other way, like generating a php version of it? And an attribute so we can name it itself, instead of just plain edit.

    Overall, I am very happy with your front end posting plugin and I cant but be happy, since other solutions arent much to my liking (too much big and useless). This one is working very well.

    I dont mind support you with a pro version and donation, if all those additional stuff I was talking about would be implemented. (I didnt mention others such as a dashboard where they can check their posts and edit).

    Good job!

    Okay one more thing:

    1.Custom fields arent working. ( when i go to the album page in administraiton, the value doesnt show up but only inside ur editor)

    2. If the permission is set to pending, after editing the post, the post doenst become pending again.

    Hi quangn,
    I want to thank you for the detailed list and I intend to accomplish some of those features by next time – meanwhile, some of those features may already be in place but lack documentation:

    #1 I haven’t listed the parameters for [textarea] yet because its been a while since I tested them, but here they are:
    ‘rows’=>8,’cols’=>40,’rich’=>1,’wpautop’=>true,’media_buttons’=>false,’tabindex’ => -1,’teeny’ => false,’dfw’ => false,’tinymce’ => false,’quicktags’=>true

    You may be able to achieve what you need with something like:
    [textarea name=”post_content” label=”Content” media_buttons=1 tinymce=1 quicktags=0]

    Will go over this more for the next update.

    #3 I will need to emphasize this feature during the next update as well, but you are already able to create new tags (non-hierarchical taxonomies) using [multicheck].
    For a post form, the tag field would be:
    [multicheck name="tags_input" label="Tags"]

    To add a new tag, you’d simply type in something non-existent and press return/enter. I will enhance this more for the next update as well.

    In regards to #4 – most elements shortcodes do support “style” and “class”, in case that may help:
    [text style="height:40px; width:250px;" class="custom-text-input"]

    For the second #2. Where do you edit the post from after it has been set to pending?
    If editing the post from the admin, you’d want to set the “Status” to “Pending” prior to saving.

    Hope to cover some more on this list next time, so will mark this resolved meanwhile. I’ll address the bugs you found although we may want those in a new thread in case they aren’t resolved next time –

    Best Regards

    Thanks for your prompt response.

    I mean this: After a post is published, I want that if some one edit it again once more, it will become pending again. (or the option to choose for the status of post)
