BuddyPress.org

I have buddypress running on a single site install and would like members to be able to write blog posts to my blog page. I would want them to be able to write posts and then for me to be able to approve them. It doesn’t matter to me if they are able to do this form the front end or the WP dashboard.

However, I do have multiple other post types. If I simply upgrade all of my members to the author level they will see all other post types which I do not want. Preferably if they need to use the wordpress backend to write the post all they would see is their user profile and posts and only be able to add a new one.

What is the best course of action here. I have seen some plugins that allow users to write post on the front end but those didn’t seem to work for me. Would it make more sense to just try and configure a user role plugin to allow my members author access to only the “posts” post type. If that is even possible…
