1 Post per author

  • Hi,

    I am making a site for a fundraiser. People sign up and get sponsors for a certain activity. I would like each participant to be able to sign up and submit 1 post which will serve as their profile page. The result would be an archive of custom posts that would serve as a participant list, while each individual post would be a single participant’s profile page. Of course, I need to limit participants to editing their post only.

    Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

    I may have participants enter info on profile pages instead of a post by adding custom fields to the author profile page. (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/21312839/how-to-create-a-edit-profile-page-for-users-on-frontend-with-custom-fields-on-wo). I would then need a post (of designated custom post type) to be created automatically for each participant upon author creation for use by visitors to the site.

    I’ll keep researching. Any help would be welcome.

    Thanks

    I am guessing it will probably be something like a custom author.php page outputting the custom fields and leaving out the loop of (non-existent) posts by the author. then an archive that lists author’s names, images & other select info from their user admin page.

    Help on how to create such a loop and how to allow participants (authors) to upload their profile image, along with any other help on this issue would be great.

    Thanks

    I did the same on internationaldownhillfederation.org.
    I used s2member for it (we use the premium version) but you can manage with the free one I think.

    For the profile page then, our users aren’t allowed to post at all….
