Topic Tag: Content-submission forms

Problem:
The user would like to use images from URLs instead of uploading them.

Solution:
This is not a featured offered by WordPress, Toolset does not offer it either. But, we can still use a 3rd party plugin, a Toolset URL field, and custom code to make it work.

Problem:
Prepopulate create post forms from an existing post.

Solution:
To prepopulate a form from another post, you will need to add the form using the shortcode instead of the Toolset form block. Using the shortcode you can pass the "template/model" post using the post attribute, where you pass the ID of the post. Something like:

[cred_form form="New Car" post="145"]
