I have a plugin that displays a custom meta box when authoring pages and posts. Is there any way to get this information to appear on the mobile app provided by Wordpress? My general hunch is no - but I figured I'd ask in case i'm missing something.

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

I am building a website in Wordpress and I am writing some Articles. When I share my post/article on Facebook, the wrong image appears (on the phone, as on the computer it seems that the image is chosen correctly). I have seen that Facebook needs the og:image tag and it needs to be called in the head metadata. As I do not have many options to add metadata to the page, I felt like using the Custom Fileds in Wordpress as being the cleanest way. As I am new to this and I am not sure I did it correctly, please guide me on how to call these custom fileds to the head metadata part of my page when it loads. I have attached a snip of my custom field here:
custom custom field
Please let me know if my thinking was correct or if I should use another method to accomplish this.
Thank you very much.
I have a sidebar (test-sidebar) that contains widgets with custom posts.
How can I can get posts from sidebar (widgets)?
I don`t want render post only get their IDs
I am using WordPress Version 4.9.6
In short, you can't with the built in WordPress widgets.
You will need to create your own widget using the WordPress Widget API. From there you will be able to develop a widget to complete whatever task you want. Otherwise it will be a trip to the WordPress plugin repo to see is someone is sharing a plugin doing what you want to do.
On a side note, you may also want to look at building a custom WP Query. This will allow you to pull in whatever posts you want and then manipulate them however, within the body of the page.

Is it possible to create an image gallery in wordpress that is managed by the admin via it's own page / panel. I am not talking about creating a new post and adding custom html for each image. I mean actually having a page in the admin that has the ability to upload and manage your images?
If it is possible how do you go about creating a custom page like this? I understand the PHP side of uploading and manipulating images, but I don't know how to integrate it with wordpress. I don't need a full blow tutorial on how to do this, but if you could just point me in the right direction that would be great.
One issue that comes to mind right away, is if this is possible would upgrading wordpress break the code? Since I assume you have to edit the admin files directly and you can't just do it from your own custom template?
From playing around I found NextGEN Gallery (http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/nextgen-gallery/) that has a tab in your admin panel. It looks like it would meet your needs.
You can manage all your media from the WordPress Media Library using tags if you install Tag Gallery
It requires the Media Tags plugin but it makes managing galleries so much easier and your using the built in media facilities of WordPress so it's not disjoint from the experience. There is a new version in the works that will offer much more impressive functionality as well.
Hope that helps.
There are a huge amount of image galleries for wordpress already made. Have a quick google for some (search "wordpress image gallery") and see if any of them are suitable (I'll be surprised if one of them isn't).
Failing that, you'll need to create yourself a Wordpress Plugin.
I've integrated ZenPhoto into my wordpress blog. It was pretty easy, would probably take you a few hours. The admin pages are completely separate from the wordpress admin pages, so you can easily give access to only one person.
You can create a custom post type called Gallery to manage create and manage image galleries. The post will have its own "Gallery" panel in the admin section and from there you can add new galleries just as you describe. There are lost of tutorials for creating gallery custom post types.
