wp_insert_post does not write my post_name

by

Gr8 job… only thing missing is the action and the timing for it to work…

try this: 

$ins_home = array(
    'post_title'    =>  'Home',
    'post_name'     =>  'my-home-site',
    'post_status'   => array('publish'),
    'post_type'     => 'page',
    'comment_status' => 'closed',
    'ping_status' => 'closed'
);

$ins_home_id = wp_insert_post($ins_home, 10, 1);

$result = $wpdb->query("SELECT wpost.post_name FROM $wpdb->posts wpost WHERE wpost.post_name="my-home-site"");

if($result < 1){// Insert the post into the database
    do_action('wp_insert_post', 'wp_insert_post', 10, 1); 
}

.

EDIT
According to the Source code of wp_insert_post

if ( empty($data['post_name']) && !in_array( $data['post_status'], array( 'draft', 'pending', 'auto-draft' ) ) ) {
    $data['post_name'] = sanitize_title($data['post_title'], $post_ID);
    $wpdb->update( $wpdb->posts, array( 'post_name' => $data['post_name'] ), $where );
}

So… if post_status not in array… post_name = post_title (sanitized ofCourse)
So… altough i am very short on time to check it today you should try to envelope
the ‘publish’ post_status with an aray – see my revised code

.

i hope this solves it… please try it and share results
