== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= Where can I find the new post fields and how can I use them? =

1. Make sure that you have installed and activated the required plugin [Contact Form 7](https://wordpress.org/plugins/contact-form-7/).
2. In the menu, navigate to the item "Contact", create a new or edit an existing form.
3. You can find 3 new fields in the tab "Form" now: "post drop-down-menu", "post checkboxes" and "post radio buttons".

= Why can't I find my own type of content (custom post type) in the list? =

The only types of content displayed are those declared as public.
See [register post type](https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/register_post_type).

= How can I make my form in the front end use a standard value automatically? =

This can easily be done by using $_GET or $_POST variables.

1. In the post field shortcode, add the option "default:get" or "default:post" ([instructions](http://contactform7.com/checkboxes-radio-buttons-and-menus/)), e.g. [post_select post_select-1 publish default:get post-type:post value-field:title orderby:title order:DESC "%title%"]
