 * A quick snippet to indicate how you might be able to populate Edit Flow editorial metadata fields when creating a new post
 * Please keep in mind: I haven't tested this code, so it may need a bit of fixing before it actually works

// Save some of the form data as editorial metadata if Edit Flow is active and the module is enabled
global $edit_flow;

    // Save an email address submitted in the form to an editorial metadata term with slug 'email-address'
    // First we sanitize the data, then we get the term, then we get the term's postmeta key, and then
    // we save the data to our newly created post
    $email_address = sanitize_email( $_POST['form-email-address'] );
    $email_address_term = $edit_flow->editorial_metadata->get_editorial_metadata_term_by( 'slug', 'email-address' );

    // If you want to save data for more editorial metadata terms, you'd basically want to
    // repeat the code for each form field
}

// ... do whatever else you need to do after saving your editorial metadata term data.
