Feature image *required*

Is there a way to use the tiny rich text area without the add media function

Hello

In the wpuf-add-post.php

SEARCH

//validate cat
        if ( wpuf_get_option( 'allow_cats', 'wpuf_frontend_posting', 'on' ) == 'on' ) {
            $cat_type = wpuf_get_option( 'cat_type', 'wpuf_frontend_posting', 'normal' );
            if ( !isset( $_POST['category'] ) ) {
                $errors[] = __( 'Bitte w?hle mindestens eine Kategorie!', 'wpuf' );
            } else if ( $cat_type == 'normal' && $_POST['category'][0] == '-1' ) {
                $errors[] = __( 'Bitte w?hle mindestens eine Kategorie!', 'wpuf' );
            } else {
                if ( count( $_POST['category'] ) < 1 ) {
                    $errors[] = __( 'Bitte w?hle mindestens eine Kategorie!', 'wpuf' );
                }
            }
        }

After Add

//Begin Require an  featured image  upload
        function my_featured_image_validation($errors) {
        if ( empty($_POST['wpuf_featured_img']) ) {
        $errors[] = __( 'Please upload a Image', 'wpuf' );
        }
         return $errors;
        }
        add_filter( 'wpuf_add_post_validation', 'my_featured_image_validation');
		//End Require an  featured image  upload

SEARCH in wpuf-add-post.php

function submit_post() {
        global $userdata;

        $errors = array();

        var_dump( $_POST );

REPLACE WITH

function submit_post() {
        global $userdata;

        $errors = array();

        //var_dump( $_POST );

Even easier: Under custom CSS codes add the following:

.wp-media-buttons {
	display: none !important;
}
