WordPress is a great CMS(Content Management System) to manage blogs, websites of various scales, over time it has gained popularity due to fulfilling demand of its users. It has gained features like autosave and many other features of the time.

The only thing it lacks at this point is a front-end editor, for the user. The user who prefers to use front-end instead of the backend, frontend editor has many advantages.

  • Preview of the how the page would actually look
  • Structure markup depending on the design.
  • Manage media(images, videos, etc) according to the design of the page
  • Easier to handle just for the user

Is it possible to get all of this right now**?** Yes it is, there is a plugin for that too…Its WA-Frontend a plugin currently in active development that lets you edit pages and post from the front end, it also allows you to manage settings and you can also access the autosave in the front end with version control, this lets you preview or revert to your earlier edited history, all you have to do is install this plugin and you are ready to go to the front-end to see it in action.

Here are a few screenshots:
