Hello,

On some part of my site, I would like to be able to use the Elementor's widgets for my CPT using Toolset instead of creating a Toolset View.

But if users upload a image or content, it is not considered as the usual wordpress "Featured image", "post content" Wysiwig or Excerpt.

Is there a way, in CRED Form to allow users to upload directly :
1./ Featured Image
2./ Post Content
3./ Excerpt

Thank you in advance for your support,
Looking forward hearing from you soon,
Best regards,

Hi Serge,

Thank you for getting in touch.

When you generate a post form it should normally auto generate these fields . See Screenshot

<div class="form-group">
		<label>Post Title</label>
		[cred_field field='post_title' value='' urlparam='' class='form-control' output='bootstrap']
	</div>

	<div class="form-group">
		<label>Post Content</label>
		[cred_field field='post_content' value='' urlparam='' output='bootstrap']
	</div>

	<div class="form-group">
		<label>Post Excerpt</label>
		[cred_field field='post_excerpt' value='' urlparam='' class='form-control' output='bootstrap']
	</div>

If they don't auto generate then you can just add these fields to your form.

Please let me know if this helps.
Thanks,
Shane

Hi Shane,

Thank you for your quick answer.
Usually, appart of the title, the field="..." attribute was the name of the field :

[cred_field field='description-longue-groupe-artiste-suivre' force_type='field' class='form-control' output='bootstrap']

So If I modify the code above with field="post_content", The content will be considered as a content for wordpress standard and will be taken into consideration by most of Elementor widgets right ? Same for field='post_excerpt' ?

[cred_field field='post_content' force_type='field' class='form-control' output='bootstrap']

Could you please share the similar field="..." code for Post Featured Image ?

Thank you in advance Shane,
Best

Hi Serge,

As mentioned these fields will get auto generated when you create your form.

However you can just use this below.

	<div class="form-group">
		<label>Featured Image</label>
		[cred_field field='_featured_image' value='' urlparam='' output='bootstrap']
	</div>

Thanks,
Shane

I can assure you that they don't.
The pictures uploaded through the CRED form are not featured as featured image, excerpt and content.
Maybe I did something wrong but they don't.

Thank you Shane
