This is very helpful and works well. Is there a way for users to embed an Adobe Spark/Express page into a blog post please?

Am I missing something? How do you assign the new post to a category? I didn't see anything about matching the category field to anything else.

why do you not let us decide the layout of the submission data ? Title, excerpt, featured image, extra images uploaded, post body content, usernickname (if anonymous user) user website (overrides the user profile), then then the zip file with a link to download it ?
You CHARGE ALOT of money to half arse this.
