clarklab / wp_insert_post_front_end_form.php
Created May 25, 2012 00:12
This is a sample front-end form using wp_insert_post(). It's quickly stripped out of my production code from Android and Me, and hasn't been tested alone, so please take it with a grain of salt.
<?
if( 'POST' == $_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] && !empty( $_POST['insert_post'] )) { //check that our form was submitted
$title = $_POST['thread_title']; //set our title
if ($_POST['thread_description']=="") { // check if a description was entered
$description = "See thread title..."; // if not, use placeholder
} else {
$description = $_POST['thread_description']; //if so, use it
