wordpress "a la" drupal option for upload - wordpress

I am wordking on a site, made with wordpress, and i like to have some sort of interractivity with the reader/user. So if anyone would like to contribute to a page/post i like to have a button "contribute" and ability to send images and text
I have seen that done with drupal, but have no idea how to thame that proble with wordpress... i know that i can "force" the user to register with limited role, but registering user just to enable them to send me there "best" cat picture seem overkill..
solution ?, experience, you have done it successfully ?

Have you search on WordPress plugin repository ?
Maybe this one has the feature you want : http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/all-in-one-video-pack/

All you need to do is set up a form which posts to the database and then have a table populated from the table.
If you're unsure of how to do this & want to use plugins then I would suggest using the popular contact form type plugins like Fast Secure Contact Form or Contact Form 7.
Take a look at those to figure out which you prefer & then couple it with this plugin to save the form data to the database. That plugin then has short codes that you can put in to display the data.

Only Show Comment in Wordpress

I am looking for a way to only show the comments posted in wordpress.
My main goal is to turn the wordpress CMS into a site like fmylife.com. The basic principle is allowing anyone to post anonymously (without having a post to comment on), and then the comments need to be moderated by the admin.
If there is an easier solution to doing this, then I'm open to hearing that as well. The only thing I don't want to do is get the fmyscript clone. I've tried that and don't like it.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks.
Adam.
Why don't you try the buddypress plugin wherein users can register and post. Just disable all other components except activity feed and make your homepage as a static activity feed page (configurable in the settings).

Adding custom user options to wordpress

I am trying to add a custom field to the wordpress user profile page. For instance if I wanted to add a field where the user could put in their Linkedin, or Twitter user name, then use that value whenever the user posts a comment, or if the user is an author, to add that value in their posts.
I have a forum (bbpress) integrated so I would also like to use this value to customize the users avatar in the forums.
I am looking at the way Wordpress uses Gravatar. I would like to do something similar. However, I'm not sure where to start. I've written a couple of shortcode plugins in the past, but nothing this complicated.
Anyone have any ideas on where I should begin on this?

Using WordPress comments.php file as a contact form

I want to build my WP theme with a built in contact form. Something simple without captcha. I would like to use just Akismet as a spam filter. So, my first thought was to "convert" the comments.php page into a contact page template. Which I got it, but some points need to be improve.
1) When you use the contact, there is no notification if the content was sent it or not. How could I put a "Thank You" message for the user?
2) As you know, with this approach the contact info doesn't go to my email. Instead it's appear in the comments admin page. Is there any chance to make WP really send me the contact info to my email?
As I said before, I don't want to use a plugin, so if you have any idea how to help me to solve these issues or a new approach to this, it will be highly appreciated.
You should simply use php mail function with your form data. If you don't wont to use plugin, you should still look at some simple plugin for code examples.
There are a lot of free open source themes with contat form you can also use as example. You should also consider creating a wordpress child theme for the theme that already has contact form. That is clean and simple solution.
Why not use a plug-in? WHY "don't you want" to?!
It can turn 1 hour of programming to 5 minutes.
Your best bet is to edit the comment-template form so it doesn't display the comments in each page or post such as single.php, index.php, page.php
Let the form only display.
When you do that, you can go into your Settings -> "Discussion Settings"
E-mail me whenever Anyone posts a
comment
Checkbox the above options. And you should be good to go.
