## Description

With this plugin a contact-form-7 form can be used to create a post.
 The created
post will have a “Pending” status. See the documentation for how to configure this
plugin, contact-form-7, and flamingo.

Required plugins: contact-form-7, flamingo.

Optional plugin: ninja-auto-post-expire – If this plugin is installed
 the “expiry
date” field for a post can be set with this plugin.

This plugin assumes you are using Gutenberg Blocks for editing.

Image files uploaded with the Contact Form 7 “[file NAME]” fields are
 saved to 
the Media Library. The file type and the file extension must be an allowed image
type. Non-image files are skipped, and the error is reported in a popup. File names
are converted to the characters a-z, A-Z, 0-9, “.”, “_” and “-“, and existing files
are never overwritten: “_1”, “_2”, and so on is added to the name.

The first uploaded image is used for the Featured Image.
