    Hey,

    I am using the buddyblog pro plugin and I want user’s can create the categories and tags from the frontend when they create a blog post from the fronend.

    As I have read the documentation, there is no such feature is available yet,right?

    If there is any hook or function that I can use for implementing this functionality,then let me know.

    Regards

    Hi Nicholas,
    Thank you for using BuddyBlog Pro.

    At the moment, it does not support front end creation of terms. We do plan it in phase 2.

    In order to allow users create terms, you will need to modify the UI significantly. BuddyBlog Pro has a lot of hooks at all the places but I do no see any simple way for you to allow users create terms.

    You will most probably need to filter the terms list output and replace with a custom one that allows adding new terms.

    Please let me know what kind f hook you are looking for? I will provide that then.

    Regards
    Brajesh

    Hi Nicholas,
    Thank you for the reply.

    here is the list of hooks fired.

    For submission.

    
do_action( 'bblpro_post_submitted', $post_id, $form_id, $post_data );

    for update

    
do_action( 'bblpro_post_updated', $post_id, $form_id, $post_data );

    So, you can use any of the above.

    Regards
    Brajesh
