    Hi - I have a client that wants to invite his "community" to post "Stories" to the site, be notified that a new "post" has been drafted, edit it, and then have it automatically post to a page/category for everyone to read.

    Does anyone have any experience or advice around this requirement? While this sounds like it would be built into a CMS, I'm looking for the proper way to accomplish this.

    Thanks,

    Hutch

    Thanks Debra. I hadn't thought about using a form to collect the stories. I use Visual Form Builder Pro and will try it with that.

    Thanks again.

    I have no experience with that form builder, however Gravity Forms can be used to post to WP so if you have any problems with the other form builder check out this page (relevant area is the last example) http://www.gravityforms.com/features/form-builder/
