If you want to edit an existing post, try my Front-end Editor plugin.

If you want to create new posts, try one of these:

	Thanks Scribu. Your plugin is fantastic, but it does not fit my need. I am trying to edit an existing post with a form. I asked a similar question about editing a user's profile with a form in the frontend and I received this response: wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/9775/… This worked perfectly for me. If there is a similar solution for editing posts I would be so grateful. – Carson Feb 21 '11 at 3:23
	is it possible to add metaboxes along with it?? – nickfrancis.me Jun 17 '11 at 12:13
	@nickfancis.me use comments for this sort of thing - that's what they're there for! – TheDeadMedic Jun 17 '11 at 12:30
	@nickfrancis.me Metaboxes are strictly for the backend. Maybe you mean widgets? – scribu Jun 17 '11 at 15:34
