Hi, when a logged out user is prompted to log in they get taken to the WP backend upon completing login.
Is there anyway to redirect them back to the form?
Thanks, C
Hi. You should give this plugin a try: https://wordpress.org/plugins/redirect-after-login/
Hello khaxan
Could you tell me if your plugin use native WP hooks ? Because I try to achieve some actions on publishing using the “save_post” hook. For example I use the famous plugin “Video Thumbnail” and it works perfectly in backend. But when I post a video using your plugin it doesn’t works. I’ve tried to use this custom function :
function save_other_video_thumbnail($post_id) {
$postdata = get_postdata($post_id);
if ($postdata['post_status'] == 'publish') {
get_video_thumbnail($post_id);
}
}
add_action('save_post', 'save_other_video_thumbnail', 100, 1);
But it doesn’t work. I use ‘publish’ status because I’ve set my form to publish every submitted posts. Can I use something different than ‘save_post’ to launch an action when a post is submitted using your plugin ?
Thanks a lot for your help.
Hi. The plugin does use native WordPress functions for publishing so the above function should get hooked properly. There might be something wrong with the above function. You are getting the video thumbnail with get_video_thumbnail but what are you doing with it? You are not inserting it or anything.
Hi khaxan and thanks a lot for you quick answer !
The function “get_video_thumbnail” already does all necessary actions :- Get the thumbnail
- Save it in media library
- Save as attachment of the post
- Set attachment as featured image
And this function works perfectly when I publish a post from backend.
I can’t find why this does not works with your plugin since you use native functions. According to the author of Video Thumbnail (he was answering another user one year ago) :
The problem people have with finding thumbnails for posts published from the front end is that the post gets created before the video data is saved. Video thumbnails needs a way of knowing the custom field has been updated, which is why the solutions you’ve tried exist. Unfortunately I don’t have access to the plugin you’re using, so I can’t give an exact answer. Could you ask the developer if they have any custom action hooks Video Thumbnails could tie into for when the custom data is saved?” (source)
It seems that you’re not using any specific hook in your plugin but let me know if there is a way to execute this action before posting process is complete.
And sorry for my bad english, tell me if I need to use differents words if I’m not understandable.
Hmmm.. Well I am exactly sure what’s causing this but maybe you could try a different hook. Perhaps wp_insert_post_data
Thanks again for your help khaxan ! Unfortunatly when I use wp_insert_post_data instead of save_post I have this error on submitting : “Could not insert post into the database”.
I’ve fully translated your plugin in french (for both backend and frontend). Please find the translation here. I hope this could increase sales in french community !
Thank you so much! Were you able to solve the video thumbnail issue though?
Unfortunatly no
Instead I’ve added the thumbnail field and users add manually their thumbnails
I’ve a similar issue with SNAP (Social Network Auto Post), when a post is published with your plugin the post is correctly posted on social networks but without his thumbnail. When I post from backend I’ve the thumbnail attached to the social post.
In both two cases it seems that the issue is the same : the post is saved before the complete publishing process is achieved : - Video Thumbnail know that a new post is published but at this time there is nothing in the meta key “video” so the plugin don’t create the thumbnail - SNAP know that a new post is published but at this time there is no featured image so the plugin don’t attach any image to the social post
I hope I’m understandable with my poor english, I mean that the “green light” is given to both plugin before the post data is correctly “printed” in db. So when a plugin like Video Thumbnail or SNAP is ordered to treat the post, there is nothing in post data.
Hi khaxan ! Happy new year !
I can confirm my previous message. ALL actions made on “save_post” don’t work correctly because post meta are empty and the publishing is not complete.
On backend everything works perfectly because on “save_post” all meta fields are filled. I don’t know why there is a “delay” for FPP. Do you have an idea for this issue ? Tell me if this couldn’t be solved and I’ll search for a different way.
Thanks !
Hi Thanks for your quick reply and for making that clear. Of course if they only see their own uploads this is good and very secure.
I was able to delete other uploads in the media library! Is this because I was logged in as admin, or can any user level do this? if so, not very secure…
Hi. Since, users can only see their own media items it is quite secure.
Hi, I’d like to ask if this plugin compatible with WP 4.4 and PHP 7? Thanks
Hi. I have tested it with WP 4.4 and it works perfectly. PHP 7 just came out so I haven’t tested with it but it should work.
Hi @khaxan, I just bought it but an important question. I want the Edit and Delete link only available when post status are Draft and Pending only for Subscriber and Contributor. Please help. Thanks
Hi. Unfortunately your requirements are too specific and the plugin won’t be able to handle them by default.
Hi Khaxan, I understand It’s not by default. At least Edit and Delete link only appear when post status are Draft and Pending. Maybe this is not too complicated. Can this be done by if statement in theme function maybe?
Unfortunately not 
Never mind, I found the way finally.
In 3.0.0 columns in the post table can be enabled/disabled by tab
So I really want to buy this but I got a question: Guests/not logged in people need to be able to create a story, or need a facebook login or something like that.
Is it possible to make it accessable for everyone ?
Hi. There are many plugins that can allow your users to login using their social media accounts. Right now only logged in people can create content using this plugin.
Since 3.0.0 anonymous posting is available.
? want to use this plug in for not logged in visitors. Why did u block that option. i could buy this.
Hi. I restricted access to the form so that unauthorized people couldn’t go through the media library.
Hello Dev,
I notice the pay-to-post feature is not yet implemented. However, I’m wondering if it’s currently possible or (you could provide guide) on how to redirect to another page after successful form submission. With that I can present another Paypal form that user can use to pay.
So is it possible to redirect post submission page to another page after successful submission?
Thanks
Hi. Yes the current version offers the redirection facility. All you have to do is add a URL in the form settings.
YES! Awesome. you got me on that. Thanks
.
. 
Yeah, it’s SurveillanceTips. LoL I posted with another account. but buying with this.
There’s no comment form showing after Posts made with Frontend Publishing Pro. Any idea how to fix this?
Just replied to your support request.
Sorry, I don’t understand: where is the reply?
I also got an email from Envato but it just links to here, so I don’t get where the reply actually is.
I sent you another email. Did you get it?
Does this support ACF?
No. It was not was not intended to be used with ACF. However you can make the two plugins work together to some extent.
Hi khaxan !
Do you have any plan to add WPML compatibility with FPP ?
Thanks !
I am not familiar enough with that plugin but I have been hearing a lot about it. So I will try to look into it before the next release.
Featured image is not working it just pulls up a gray background and nothing for upload
I just responded to your support request.
Hi, is it possible to connect user submissions to ACF Custom fields? Bought 2 other plugins already, both are great in what they offer but were unfortunately not able to satisfy my needs yet.
I have a custom post type, and I use ACF to manage custom fields used by it. And I need the registered users to be able to create this post type with the following field types: - wysiwyg/html editor (description with stylings) – image gallery (1-x images, preferably to be connected to acf gallery field) – file upload (- video upload)
Can you please let me know if or what of those features are possible in your plugin?
Thanks!
Hi. Unfortunately none of the three custom field types you have mentioned in your query are supported in the current version.
I’d like to add front end posting to a theme that I sell. Would the theme buyer have to set up all the front end posting forms? or is there a way to make it easier, like “importing” forms that I make ahead of time? I need this to be as simple as possible for the theme buyer. Thanks!
Hi. You can easily insert the form details into the database table as soon as the theme gets activated. Let me know if you need any more help with this.
But the theme buyer needs to set this all up, right? There is no way for me (theme creator) to do this ahead of time, so that the theme buyer doesn’t need to do much? Thanks for your answer.
What I was trying to say in my last comment was that you (the theme developer) could add the form details to the database table directly so that the buyer doesn’t have to.
Sorry for dragging on with this!
... what database table? Is there one as part of the plugin, or do you mean the WP database? (wpdb)
Its okay
Inside the wp database, the plugin creates its own table to store form data. So if you could just serialize form data and insert it into the table when the theme is installed, your users won’t have to create a form.
Hello Khaxan,
I have the Social Networks Auto Post (SNAP) plugin installed to auto publish posts on social media but the post’s category on facebook shows as “Uncategorized” even when i set a category to it. The developer said it has something to do with a delay in setting the category after the post is published. It only happens when i use the frontend form, wordpress post editor works fine.
Any ideas on a fix?
Hi. I will make sure that this problem doesn’t exist in the next version.
Can I set the the post will not be published directly but must first be confirmed by me?
Yes this option is available. Just visit the form settings to take advantage of this.
Hey, nice Item Can I disable the Login to send a post???
Is really important…
Hi. Unfortunately you can’t do this. We didn’t add this feature because we didn’t want insecure access to the media library.
Oh this is really bad 
Sorry
The next version won’t have this limitation.
When the new version comes ???
Presale question! Is it possible to add edit/delete button at the bottom of each post so that users can easily edit/delete their post?
P.S. : Are you the author who made “Report Content”? I just wonder you are the author because of same thumbnail 
Hi. Actually there are some complications due which this feature can’t be added.
Yes I am the author of Report Content as well.
Hi, You can make non-subscribers can publish articles?
I will try to add this in the next release.
Can you make this a pop up from a button on the site? So say I had a button in the sidebar that said, Create a Post! And when you click it, this pops up in a window?
I haven’t tested the form in popups so I can’t say anything for sure. It also depends on how you create the popup.
