The post gets added and published but since you have the meta query and the meta key is not added when you submit the post from frontend, it does not show up. Use the following code which adds the meta data as needed. if ( isset( $_POST[‘submitted’] ) ) { $post_information = array( ‘post_title’ => … Read more
Should I be creating an interface for my new table? How do I go about that? Unfortunately, there is no interface to implement, you’re going to have to build everything from scratch. This includes: The admin pages The edit screens The saving and updating and deleting All the classes and functions will need building from … Read more
It is probably better to upgrade the old installation to a current wp version and reapply the changes. Unless it is a very big site you are probably going to waste more time in researching , coding and debugging an automatic solution then what it will take you to manually edit the posts.
The first argument of array_merge is the array of old values pulled from the original post, not your new values, so I’d guess you’re passing an invalid post ID. In your array of new values, I think you want to set post ID to $page_check_404->ID, not $ss_404_post_id.
the parameters to remove_action are wrong, they should be exactly the same parameters that you used in add_action, first should be the hook and then the function name remove_action(‘save_post’,’save_details’);
I’ve used this to insert posts with ACF/postmeta data successfully, but please test it on a development site before deploying live, there might be some terrible assumptions. Generally, it assumes that you only have each name once, that is “myfield” doesn’t exist in two field groups with different meanings. $mycustomvalue = 123; $f_mycustomfield = get_acf_key_by_name(“mycustomfield”); … Read more
I wasn’t adding the ID into the new array. if ( get_post_type( $post_id ) == ‘equipment’ ) { $my_post = array(); $my_post[‘ID’] = $post_id; $my_post[‘post_title’] = get_field( ‘name’, $post_id ); wp_update_post( $my_post ); }
OK, this is possible, but it will be a little bit tricky and I would recommend a lot of testing after deploying this solution. Disclaimer: I use base64_encode and base64_decode as cipher/decipher functions, but of course you can change them to whatever you like. First part (encoding before post is stored in DB) is pretty … Read more
I’m sure you want to use the_content filter instead of the default_content filter (already mentioned by @jgraup) because what happens if the generated HTML changes? Then you’re stuck with it in your content. It’s better to add it dynamically. Here’s one suggestion: add_filter( ‘the_content’, function( $content) { if( ! in_the_loop() ) return $content; if( ‘property’ … Read more
You can use the $wp_error argument to return an error message. $post_id = wp_update_post( $my_post, true ); if ( is_wp_error( $post_id ) ) { echo $post_id->get_error_message(); } else { echo ‘true’; }
