After that, in order to edit a post you do so using the Post Editor in the WordPress dashboard.</p> <p>However you may be able to cobble something together using existing plugins such as a plugin that allows users to edit their own posts on the frontend. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/display-posts-and-appendedit-data#post-14191 Fri, 10 Dec 2010 15:48:28 +0000 TymB 14191@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>OK, I've looked around the forums and learned a little about post fields and displaying form data in posts. But, I'm not sure if the following can be done (without any custom coding):</p> <p>I would like to have several outsourced employees calling vendors asking information and filling out a form on our website. We would capture the entries and display the results in posts on our website.</p> <p>The problem is they may not get all of the information (or the correct information) on the first call. So, maybe a few days later we will call the same vendor back and try to get the remainder of the information.</p> <p>I would like to add data (empty fields from the first submission) and edit existing data from the original entry on the website (NOT logged into the backend). Is this possible? </p>
