How to access the post meta of a post that has just been published?
Solved it! Used save_post to run push_notification() as well as to run the function save_post_meta() that saves my post meta. The problem occurred coz push_notification() gets fired before save_post_meta() due to which the meta wasn’t being saved and therefore it remained inaccessible.

How can I add a jQuery OnClick event to the Publish posts button?

How to add a “publish” link to the quick actions
Without doing Ajax (like in Quick Edit), the admin_url should be the very edit.php page. Note that: the filter post_row_actions takes two arguments, the second one being $post, so the global is not necessary. instead of using id as query argument, it’s best practice to use custom names, in this case update_id. I didn’t know … Read more

Note: the updated hook should be ‘draft_to_publish’ instead of ‘draft_to_published’ however, the code below is not … Read more
