**The #1 Plugin for User-Generated Content!**
User Submitted Posts (USP) adds a frontend form via template tag or shortcode that enables your visitors to submit posts and upload images. Just add the following shortcode to any Post, Page, or Widget:
`[user-submitted-posts]`
That’s all there is to it! Your site now can accept user generated content. Everything is super easy to customize via Plugin Settings page.
The USP Form includes the following fields:
* Name
* URL
* Email
* Post Title
* Post Tags
* Anti-Spam/Captcha
* Post Category
* Post Content
* Image Upload
USP Form fields may be set as required, optional, or disabled. You can set the Post Status of submitted posts as “Draft”, “Publish Immediately”, or publish after some number of approved posts.
USP also enables users to upload multiple images when submitting a post. You control the min/max number of images and the min/max number of images that may be submitted.
