Hello. I have created a form for guest posting, using only fields from the 'Post fields' menu. The form is correctly submitted and notificated via email. I can also view the entries and the content of the fields in 'Forms > Entries', but the content of the fields (text and drop-downs) is not displayed in the post. However, title and posted images are published, no matter if I am logged in or out. Sorry if it's a newbie question, but I don't know how to solve the problem. Any help??

Mac · WP and GF version up to date · Twentyten theme.
Sample form: http://terradesperta.com/frontera/?page_id=1700

You mention only using fields from the Post Fields menu, but there is no dropdown field in that section. The fact that your title and posted images are working leads me to believe that things are working okay, but maybe your form needs some tweaking.

If you could e-mail me at peralty@rocketgenius.com with more details on what you are trying to accomplish as well as login information to your WordPress installation, I'd be glad to give you a hand where I can.

I've e-mailed you the following. Let me know if you need any more details.

Basically, you need to use the Body field instead of the Excerpt field to make the body of your posts show up, also your custom fields are being recorded, but you'll have to code your theme to display the values from those custom fields.

Hope this helps.
