wp_set_post_terms() seems very slow
I’ve recently done a batch import of about 200 posts, with 5 taxonomies attached to them and each of the posts a few terms. It took about 5-10 seconds to do the whole batch. So no, it shouldn’t be this slow.
Post meta data not showing in frontend, until hitting ‘update’ button
Thanks for your answers! Maybe I was a bit unclear, but I don’t use ACF, it is just a field that comes with the theme.

wp_insert_post inside save_post adds wrong metadata to inserted post
The reason for that is the save_post loop. When you call wp_insert_post, it triggers save_post and thus inserts the student meta. what you can do is, to check if the post type is correct while inserting the meta. like: add_action( ‘save_post’, ‘save_student_meta’, 10, 2 ); function save_student_meta( $post_id, $post ) { if ( ‘student’ !== … Read more
On save_post need to wp_insert_post and save partent post id to child post and child post id to parent post
Here’s an updated version of your code: add_action(‘save_post’, array($this, ‘save_post_type_example_meta_boxes’)); function save_post_type_example_meta_boxes($post_id) ………. if (…) { $new_custom_post = array( ‘post_title’ => $title, ‘post_content’ => ”, ‘post_status’ => ‘publish’, ‘post_author’ => 1, ‘post_type’ => ‘custom_post_type’, ‘meta_input’ => array( ‘meta_1’ => ‘X’, ‘parent_post_id’ => $post_id, ), ); // Prevent this action from running twice. remove_action( ‘save_post’, [ … Read more
Meta inserted through wp_insert_post gets messed up
So I ended up just adding the meta after inserting the post, which doesn’t give any error. It bypasses the problem without explaining it though… $postarr = array( ‘post_title’ => $link[‘caption’], ‘post_type’ => ‘ct_external_link’, ‘post_status’ => ‘publish’, ‘post_excerpt’ => $link[‘caption’], ); $external_link_id = wp_insert_post($postarr); if( !empty($external_link_id) ) { add_post_meta($external_link_id, ‘ct_external_link_url’, $doc[‘file’], true); if( isset($doc[‘hide’]) ) … Read more
wp_insert_post with ACF Fields and WP Meta Query returns no rows until update
Hello and thanks for all who read this and commented. Apparently, the query didn’t return any rows because BOTH FIELDS need to be present for the query to run correctly. The secondary meta parameter “message_read_by” didn’t exist so I just needed to insert with no value. Problem solved.

permalink not showing correctly using wp_insert_post and post_name
AH! https://permalinkmanager.pro/docs/tutorials/how-to-remove-numbers-2-3-appended-to-the-permalinks/ So the automatic slug creation of -2, -3, ..etc is done by core in order to make slugs unique. But I knew there was a way to change the permalink and not the slug. I just couldn’t find code anywhere to do this so I resorted to using this premium plugin. global $permalink_manager_uris; … Read more
