    Hi, I have created a custom post type for a site called “memory_quilt”. For some reason I can’t figure out how to get the submission to save as this post type. In the wp-admin I find it under “Media” >> “Manage UGC”. How do I get it to save under my custom post type “Memory Quilt” >> “Manage UGC”?

    I looked in the database and it looks like it is saving as post_type “attachment”.

    Here’s the code I added to my functions.php for my custom post type:

    add_action('init', 'custom_post_types');
    function custom_post_types(){
        register_post_type('memory_quilt',
            array(
                'labels' => array(
                  'name' => __('Memory Quilt'),
                ),
                'menu_icon' => 'dashicons-heart',
                'public' => true,
                'has_archive' => true,
                'supports' => array('title', 'editor', 'thumbnail', 'custom-fields'),
                'exclude_from_search' => true,
            )
        );
    }

    Here’s the shortcode I created:

    [fu-upload-form suppress_default_fields="true" title="Add an image and note about your loved one below. After approval, it will be added to the memory quilt. Thank you." post_type="memory_quilt"]
    [input type="text" name="dmq_submitter" id="dmq-submitter"
    class="required" description="Your Name"]
    [input type="text" name="post_title" id="dmq-email"
    class="required" description="Your Email Address"]
    [input type="text" name="dmq_first" id="dmq-first"
    class="required" description="First Name of Loved One"]
    [input type="text" name="dmq_note" id="dmq-note" description="Include a note about loved one (optional)"]
    [input type="file" name="photo" id="dmq-photo-submission"
    class="required" description="Attach a Photo of your Loved One"]
    [input type="submit" class="btn" value="Submit"]
    [recaptcha]
    [/fu-upload-form]

    Nevermind, I found the solution to my problem by re-reading the documentation…

    As mentioned, you need to set form_layout equal to post or post_media in the shortcode.

    Thanks!
