These are the steps you need to follow to integrate Typer and WPUF:

Section titled “These are the steps you need to follow to integrate Typer and WPUF:”

  • Install and enable WPUF plugin and skip their wizard. You don’t need to import anything by default.

  • Go to User Frontend - Post forms and add a new form. Configure it however you like then save it. Once you save it you will get a shortcode for it. Save the shorcode somewhere because you will need it later.

  • Go to Admin Panel - Settings - Front User Profile

  • Enable “Publish post” in the Module options section

  • Select “Custom” in the Frontend publishing options section

  • Paste the previously saved shortcode to the “Add article page shortcode” field

  • Paste [wpuf_edit] shortcode in the “Edit article page shortcode”

  • Save your options and when you go to your profile you will see the “New article” button bellow your name and avatar.

Note that you can play with WPUF settings a lot. For example you can only allow specific user types to post articles, you can choose if the article goes under review after it gets submitted, etc.
