Guest Posts will help you to create a strong interaction and engagement with your blog readers. This plugin will create a form where your guests can submit their posts.
The posts will be saved directly into your WordPress database and will show up in your WordPress Dashboard as pending.
You can then review and approve them as needed. It will save authors Name and email as custom field, so you will be able to display authors name and give them a credit back with some simple tweaks into your theme. You can also show a custom Thank You message after submitting the post. If you want more, check out premium version Guest Posts Pro @ WorkersLab.com The plugin is simple to install and use. Even a very novice user can install and use the plugin. And I'm sure you are better than that. ;)
No need to edit any code.
For a easy installation guide checkout the Installation tab above. You can style the form if you wish. We have used just one class called "guest-posts". To style the form add CSS for the "guest-posts" class and it's sub elements into your theme. Version 2.0, Now loaded with more features. Upcoming Features For any further inquiry you can message me directly from my blog. == Installation == You will be ready to offer a very new and unique feature to your readers within 2 minutes with our very easy installation recipe.
