 * I’m working on a site where I want people to submit diabetic friendly recipes.
   My plan is to have a form that someone can fill out and put the category (i.e.
   breakfast, lunch, etc) and when they submit it, it goes for approval. When I 
   approve it, it will go to the Breakfast recipe page. I don’t want the post to
   show up on the front page.
 * Whats the easiest way to do this.

 * i think u can use the default theme of wordpress and edite the sidebar and write
   the categories
    u will write first 5 or 6 posts every one for one category and
   but every category link in the sidebar the main categories will be in the front
   page but the comment will be in post’s page it self i hope that help or something
   good luck

 * You can do this, the method depends on how much you know about CSS and making
   a WP theme, or how much you’re willing to learn. You can go from the simplest,
   to more complex and custom solutions.
 * Basically, just install default WordPress, default theme. Choose the options 
   under WP-Admin to set the Role for New Users, and check that new users can submit
   a Draft. The “Form” they fill out is just the normal write-post form. Post title
   should be the name of the recipe. The category boxes are visible on the right,
   they can choose breakfast/lunch, or if they forget to choose then you can fix
   it before you Publish the post.
 * You can customize from there, by improving your theme or choosing another theme
   from [http://themes.wordpress.net/](http://themes.wordpress.net/)
    and modify
   things the way you want.
 * There are a bunch of nice plugins that could help your site, such as Custom-Fields
   GUI (if you want to make a custom Write Post form with things like a box for “
   Ingredients” and “Cooking Time”), and plugins to help you make an alphabetical
   index of the recipes by-title.

 * Here is what I have done so far. Let me know what you think. I want to have the
   user also rate each recipe with stars.
