Create action running on trashed_post hook to modify post_meta value

wp_trash_post and trashed_post – from source: function wp_trash_post($post_id = 0) { if ( !EMPTY_TRASH_DAYS ) return wp_delete_post($post_id, true); if ( !$post = wp_get_single_post($post_id, ARRAY_A) ) return $post; if ( $post[‘post_status’] == ‘trash’ ) return false; do_action(‘wp_trash_post’, $post_id); add_post_meta($post_id,’_wp_trash_meta_status’, $post[‘post_status’]); add_post_meta($post_id,’_wp_trash_meta_time’, time()); $post[‘post_status’] = ‘trash’; wp_insert_post($post); wp_trash_post_comments($post_id); do_action(‘trashed_post’, $post_id); return $post; }

Trash a post, send associated comments into the trash bin (change status)

There’s an action called trashed_post_comments that runs right after the comments are set to post-trashed status. You could hook into that: add_action( ‘trashed_post_comments’, ‘wpse134528_really_trash_comments’ ); function wpse134528_really_trash_comments( $post_id ) { $args = array( ‘post_id’ => $post_id, ‘status’ => ‘post-trashed’, ); $comments = get_comments( $args ); foreach( $comments as $comment ) { wp_trash_comment( $comment->comment_id ); } … Read more
