Excellent, thank you very much! Any way you could point me to the specific sections of the documentation that relate to my question?

I have set up the majority of the form and it works fine, these are the particular areas which are bugging me.

Hi there any response to my question? I know the basic things but to set up a separate category field that is hidden and recent is always selected isn’t really easy to understand from the guide you have referred me to. I managed to do all of this in gravity forms and am looking for this plugin to replace it.

It’s been 5 days since I posted and asked for support. Is it possible for you to help me or do I need to request a refund on your plugin? Simply telling me that everything I need is in the documentation is not good enough. I have read through your documentation and have a specific user case that needs to be addressed. With gravity forms I got it working out of the box. I’m not sure what the issue is here and why you can’t assist me.

Hello Salih,
We’re sorry for being late. The features you requested took us a while to test. So here I am with the solutions.
1. One Default Category and Let the user choose one: use the code below in your theme’s function.php and replace 1 by your default category’s id.

function wpufe_add_category( $postarr ) {
    if ( isset( $postarr['post_category'] ) ) {
        array_push( $postarr['post_category'], 1);
    }

    return $postarr;
}
 
add_filter( 'wpuf_add_post_args', 'wpufe_add_category' );

and to let the users to choose a category use the category taxonomy in the form.

2. Background image depending on category: This is a bit complex thing. You can hire a developer to make this feature available.

3. YouTube Video on RichText Editor: You have to use the normal editor to embed YouTube videos from links.

Ok no problems. With solution number one how do I make this work for the Dashboard when user also goes to edit and update the post, because once they use that the solution does not work.

Thank you for your help here.

I didn’t understand your last reply. Can you please elaborate more?

Hi Sorry for the late response.

So the code you provided works fine in the submission form and the recent category is recorded without the user knowing. However when they go to edit their clip from their dashboard so the shortcode dashboard feature you have from the front end the ‘recent’ category is wiped. So I need to have this code applied to the dashboard area as well.

To work the category in edit post area, add this code as well.
add_filter( 'wpuf_update_post_args', 'wpufe_add_category' );

Thank you that worked perfectly!
