I am a creating a website on WordPress that uses a plunging called H5P which allows the creation of interactive content. as in the picture below. However the creation of the content is currently only possible from the dashboard.
I would like to allow my website guests to use the plugin to create content but from a separate page and without letting them access or use the WordPress dashboard. In other words, I just want to show the users the section in green in the picture.
Similarly, Is there any way to allow the guests to create posts also without going from the dashboard? such as another page that the same fields to create a post but to be visited without going through WordPress dashboard?
Thanks a lot for any help you may provide

Trying to figure out if there is a way to take a snippet of a wordpress blog, same site, same hosting, and plug that into a pure HTML page.
Example... I want to show the title of the blog, and first 150 characters. With a link to ..."read more" which would take the visitor to the actual blog.
Widget? or custom type of coding?
One way that WordPress exposes blog output to other applications is through the RSS feed.
It is often available by URL at
"http:// your-Wordpress-Root-URL.com/ feed".
You can use that URL in a 3rd-party widget that you use via HTML/JS on any HTML page.
They'll give you the code snippet to drop in your page.
And they'll have different options to customize things like the number of blog entries to show, and the length to preview - as you mentioned.
I'll paste a couple links to start with, and you can easily search for more online with something like "RSS feed widget" in google.

I am maintaining a wordpress blog and am familiar with using the og:image meta tag to set the default image that is included when a like button is pressed. What I want to know is if there is a way to make this image dynamic based on the item liked.
I am trying to build it so that the first image in a particular blog post that is liked is what is pushed to the facebook feed post, with the blog's default image only used if there is no image in the post. Does facebook provide any way to do this with the graph api?
I tried writing javascript to change the meta tag on article pages (rather than the homepage) but found out later the crawler does not run javascript, so am now considering implementing the same but server side with PHP. This still would not solve the problem of Likes from the blog homepage, where there are multiple blog items on the page though. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
The only is changing how the meta tags get rendered to the client, in server code or in your layout template. There is no graph api method for this and you can't modify the tags with javascript as their scraper doesn't execute javascript.
Also, the scraper won't keep re-visiting your site so once it access it, it will be cached until you go to the url linter tool manually. so for the home page, you would probably just want the default image.
I am a plone newbie and I'm trying to set up a site-wide RSS feed of all my site's content in Plone 4.0.7
I have followed the instructions here:
http://plone.org/documentation/manual/plone-community-developer-documentation/functionality/rss
I've partially succeeded - I created the content collection, and the RSS feed is working:
http://nitric.co.za/site-feed/RSS
The problem is <link type="alternate"... /> is not appearing on every page of the site.
The instructions suggest that in ZMI -> portal_actions -> site_actions there should be a record for RSS. There was no such record in my installation. However under portal_actions -> document_actions there was so I cut and paste it into site_actions however this had no effect.
What is the best way to get the RSS link tag to appear in the html header of every page on my site?
site_actions are the links at the bottom of your page (eg Site Map, Accessibility, Contact)
those won't help you in getting elements to your header.
to have all your feeds available on all pages throughout your portal you need to create a custom theme package and either
register a custom viewlet or
customize the main_template
i quickly checked the collective repository (http://dev.plone.org/collective/browser) for packages named rss and found http://pypi.python.org/pypi/collective.siterss which pretty much sounds like it will solve your problem.
Is it possible to create small blocks of editable content on certain pages of a wordpress install?
I am thinking along the lines of little boxes that contain specific information that can be edited through the admin dashboard.
I'm sure it's possible, but you'd probably have to look in to the WordPress plugin API to hook in to the proper places and save it to the DB. Also check out jQuery's inlne editor plugin.
