Kulpreet Singh – I used to use TDO all the time before Gravity Forms came out, but Gravity Forms can do so much more…

That’s awesome David, thanks. I am definitely going to get this plugin. I was using TDO Mini Forms but I think this might be better – have you used TDO?

If you buy it, and still don’t get it, they have a great forum to ask questions in. Also, I know that they are going to be pushing out some screencast tutorials soon, but if you need me to, I’ll record one for you on making a guest post form.

I don’t know if there is a tutorial, but it is quite easy. Create a form, and look under Post Fields. Add in the post fields for Title, Category, and Body. Click Edit on the Title field and look for Post Status. By default it should be set to draft.

Once you save the form, add it to a page (maybe called Guest Post Submissions) and voila. Anything submitted to that form will be a draft post in WordPress.

I’d like to get this plugin for the “guest post” function – but I don’t know how to set that up. Is there a tutorial online on how someone can submit the contents on a public form, and have those contents become a “draft” post?

So you’ve pretty much sold me on this plugin. I’ll definitely have to give it a try once my funds pick up! =)
