Front-end articlewriting?

    Hi,
    I did many searches on this topic both from here and google, but didn’t come to the solution.

    I’d like to know if it was possible to add articles in wp in front end?
    Or maybe just a link in the front-end to the back-end article writing thingie?

    and slightly off-topic issue – is it possible to change the default publishing option of an article? (I’d really like them all to be automatically published)

    Thanks,
    KK.

    Thanks for the link, but unfortunately this was no good.
    I’d like something that is like a full page in front end, covering all the aspects of the back-end article creator thingie (categorie choosing, tags etc).
    Like a link in the sidebar to the page, which has the design and stuff like the rest of the blog, but just has an article creator thingie.

    Any keyword which I’d need to search for?

    To make sure I understand: You want an interface with all the features of the Write Posts screen, but publicly exposed so anyone can write posts and add categories without logging in?

    Not anyone, only registered users.
    But for the sake of user comfortability it would be really nice to have the Write Posts with all the interfaces somewhere in the front end.

    How uncomfortable would it be for them to just login and hit “Write”? I’m not being obtuse here, but if your users are that lazy, I’m not sure they should be given free reign to your backend.

    Maybe a link to post.php can be on your sidebar; hopefully it would only be visible (or only be functional) to an already logged in user.

    I’m leary of PHP since I don’t know enough about it and it can be dangerous if the right (or wrong) holes are left wide open.
