I am making front end admin for users to add/edit their posts. I already made post add form and it works, but edit form doesnt work.
functions.php
function add_new_post( $post_id )
{
if( $post_id == 'new' ) {
// Create a new post
$post = array(
'post_title' => $_POST["fields"]['field_52c810cb44c7a'],
'post_category' => array(4),
'post_status' => 'draft',
'post_type' => 'post'
);
// insert the post
$post_id = wp_insert_post( $post );
return $post_id;
}
else {
return $post_id;
}
}add_filter('acf/pre_save_post' , 'add_new_post' );
index.php
<div id="updateform-<?php the_ID(); ?>" class="collapse">
<?php
echo get_the_ID();
$args = array(
'post_id' => get_the_ID(), // post id to get field groups from and save data to
'field_groups' => array(31), // this will find the field groups for this post (post ID's of the acf post objects)
'form' => true, // set this to false to prevent the <form> tag from being created
'form_attributes' => array( // attributes will be added to the form element
'id' => 'post',
'class' => '',
'action' => get_permalink( get_the_ID() ),
'method' => 'post',
),
'return' => add_query_arg( 'updated', 'true', get_permalink() ), // return url
'html_before_fields' => '', // html inside form before fields
'html_after_fields' => '', // html inside form after fields
'submit_value' => 'Update', // value for submit field
'updated_message' => 'Post updated.', // default updated message. Can be false to show no message
);
acf_form( $args );
?>
</div>
For saving posts you should use save_post
not pre_save_post
.
Basically pre_save_post
is used for new posts.
Use this below add_filter('save_post' , 'add_new_post');
