Tell us what you are trying to do?
I want to make a page that is based on a form. Like an Obituary where someone can fill out a form with all of the required info and the site will make a page in draft... So, there would be a name, birth date, death date, age, the obituary itself, and other info. I am good if you can point me to what plugin to use or another answer from a previous question. I searched and did not see what I am looking for. Maybe it is similar to posting a product on a classifieds site... I am not sure.

Is there any documentation that you are following?
I searched but didnt find anything specific.

Is there a similar example that we can see?
Any mortuary has an obituary section but I have not seen a form for them. I assume they do it manually.

What is the link to your site?
It is a development site so it will change later. hidden link

Hi Jared,

Thank you for getting in touch.

You will actually need 2 plugins our Types plugin and our Forms plugin. The Types plugin that you will use to create the Post type for your record, as well as the custom fields such as name, birth date, death date, age

Next you will need the forms plugin so that users can create their individual record from the frontend. You can set the information as Draft in the forms as well.

Please let me know if this helps.
Thanks,
Shane
