    I have that field enabled but not required. The problem is it is visible to logged in users. Presumably logged in users email address is on file so it is a little redundant and confusing to ask the logged in user to resupply it.

    I notice the Name and URL fields do not appear on the form when the user is logged in and I also have them enabled but not required. So, maybe rendering the email field for logged in users is a oversight. Hope so because I’d like to see it go away when logged in.

    Many Thanks

    Hey @y2kand13, thanks for the feedback. It actually makes a lot of sense. I will add this feature in the next plugin update, so that the email field is hidden automatically if/when the user is logged in to WordPress. Will also look at the Name and URL fields, to make sure everything is consistent. Let me know if any other ideas or feedback, it is appreciated.

    Thank for the positive feedback on my feedback, and while I have your ear I do happen to have a suggestion that you might look into?

    I got an ideal, but if you implement it, you’ll probably only add the feature to your pro version of your plugin. That said, if this feature was present in your pro version I’d send you your asking price in a hurry!

    My ideal involves putting a preview button on your form to let users view their work before they submit it. There is a plugin available now that provides previews after a fashion not far from what your UPS form could use. Maybe you could look at it and figure out how to add a similar feature to your plugin.

    Thanks for the idea, @y2kand13. I will take a closer look at the Post Preview plugin and see what’s possible maybe for adding a post-preview feature to the pro version. Thanks again, I appreciate the feedback.

    Yeah nice to hear, if you do get that feature working it should be a simple matter to redirect to the newly created post like most other forum type software does automatically.

    The antispam question is another field that can go away for logged in users.

    Just to follow up with this, the Email field is hidden by default in the next version of the plugin. Should be available before WP 5.4 release. Thanks for the feedback, @y2kand13.

    Update: I changed the functionality to better fit with existing options. So in the next version of the plugin, you can hide the Email field for logged-in users by enabling the option “Registered Email” (under the Users settings).
