Sponsored Post Order Form

By default, when WP Sponsored Posts is installed, a new page is created titled Order Sponsored Post. This page contains the shortcode for the sponsored order form seen below. The shortcode to display this form in a post or page is: [ SponsoredOrderForm ]

This form will allow the visitor to enter their sponsored post details, which will be stored as a pending post in the Wordpress admin area. The blog owner will be notified of the post and can then review, edit, and approve the sponsorship. The screenshots page has a video of the ordering process.

If the setting “Require Registration” is set on the WP Sponsored Posts settings page, only registered users will be able to submit sponsored posts.

If you set a Sponsored Post Price and a PayPal address in the WP Sponsored Posts settings, this form will take the user to Paypal checkout where payment will be handled prior to saving their post. Paid posts will still be set as pending and must be approved by the admin before they are displayed.
