    Is there a way to require login before submitting a form on the frontend?

    I found that the Members plugin allows me to wrap the metabox frontend shortcode in Members shortcode.

    https://members-plugin.com/

    I used one for logged in users and another for logged out users to display different content. 

    [members_logged_in]
[mb_frontend_form id='drop-details' post_fields='title,thumbnail,content']
[/members_logged_in]

    [members_not_logged_in]<p>You must login to add a Drop. </p>
[members_login_form /]
[/members_not_logged_in]

    Hello,

    Thanks for sharing your solution. Currently, there is no option to require a user login to view the frontend submission form. You can just output the shortcode in a condition to check the user login with WordPress function is_user_logged_in()
