My gut instinct would be to roll my own AJAX callback. You obviously know the post ID (since you have it on the front end) and the names of the fields, just post that back to WP using AJAX and programmatically set the values there. An untested example (props to Kailey Lampert): // Add checkboxes … Read more
Rarely do I answer question with simply a plugin recommendation – and I’d never recommend a commercial one – but since there’s a really good plugin for the task of front end profiles/login and such out there, I cannot let it go unmentioned: Check out Theme-My-Login by Jeff Farthing. There ain’t no better solution. It’s … Read more
As you haven’t offered the details on what you’re after, I’ll try to grab them all very briefly. Use the API – public WP_User_Query API functions Basically get_user_by() should be enough for you. Let’s say you fire of your form and the input field name was user_id. So you’d just retrieve the value from the … Read more

Here’s a modified version of the example that uses single_template. It checks for a specific custom post type and loads the theme’s page.php template if it … Read more
It’s much simpler than you think. The function you will be dealing with is wp_insert_term as I am assuming you only want to provide basic functionality to add a new term (club) and not update terms I won’t cover the wp_update_term function now. The example below is very basic and is intended to be that … Read more
Add this to your functions.php in your template folder. <?php //Set Default Meta Value function set_default_meta_new_post($post_ID){ $current_field_value = get_post_meta($post_ID,’YOURMETAKEY’,true); //change YOUMETAKEY to a default $default_meta=”100″; //set default value if ($current_field_value == ” && !wp_is_post_revision($post_ID)){ add_post_meta($post_ID,’YOURMETAKEY’,$default_meta,true); } return $post_ID; } add_action(‘wp_insert_post’,’set_default_meta_new_post’); ?>

Newer browsers implement the FormData interface, but for older browsers you’re stuck with some kind of flash uploader, like PlUpload for example.
