I know there is this:
http://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/create-a-front-end-form/

but are there any detailed frontend form posting tutorials on how to set up the functions and form structure for create and edit posts on the frontend for a custom post type?

Maybe something like:
http://code.tutsplus.com/tutorials/posting-via-the-front-end-inserting–wp-27034
or
http://code.tutsplus.com/tutorials/posting-via-the-front-end-advanced-submission–wp-27208
or
http://code.tutsplus.com/tutorials/posting-via-the-front-end-editing-and-deleting–wp-27172

but using ACF?

I think this could be really helpful

Hi @iphoenix ,
Thanks for the request.

I will let the developer know if this and probably might come up with a tutorial for the same.

Hi there @iphoenix
There is a really fantastic and well detailed tutorial out there that will help you out on this. It gives you front end posting as well as front end editing.

I simply love how it was done.

I just wrote an article covering how to create a frontend form with email notifications, as well as admin only fields.
