Auto generate post title in WPUF Pro plugin WordPress
- REFUNDED
I have this [[LINK href="http://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/214927/change-auto-post-title-generation-according-to-different-post-properties"]]function[[/LINK]] below that automatically generates a post title. I want this function to work with WFUP Pro ([[LINK href="http://docs.wedevs.com/docs/wp-user-frontend-pro/developer-docs/"]]See here for WPUF plugin developer docs[[/LINK]])...
add_action( 'save_post', 'wpse_214927_alter_title', 10, 2 );
function wpse_214927_alter_title ( $post_id, $post_object )
{
// Target only specific post type
if ( 'my_specific_post_type' !== $post_object )
return;
// Remove the current action
remove_action( current_filter(), __FUNCTION__ );
$post_date = $post_object->post_date;
$format_date = DateTime::createFromFormat( 'Y-m-d H:i:s', $post_date );
$date_formatted = $format_date->format( 'Y-m-d' ); // Set correct to display here
$post_author = $post_object->post_author;
$author_name = get_the_author_meta( 'display_name', $post_author ); // Adjust as needed
$my_post = [
'ID' => $post_id,
'post_title' => $author_name . ' Job ' . $date_formatted // Change as needed
];
wp_update_post( $my_post );
}

Please try this
add_action( 'wpuf_add_post_after_insert', 'wpuf_alter_title' );
add_action( 'wpuf_edit_post_after_update', 'wpuf_alter_title' );
function wpuf_alter_title ( $post_id){
$post_object=get_post($post_id);
$post_date = $post_object->post_date;
$format_date = DateTime::createFromFormat( 'Y-m-d H:i:s', $post_date );
$date_formatted = $format_date->format( 'Y-m-d' ); // Set correct to display here
$post_author = $post_object->post_author;
$author_name = get_the_author_meta( 'display_name', $post_author ); // Adjust as needed
$my_post = [
'ID' => $post_id,
'post_title' => $author_name . ' Job ' . $date_formatted // Change as needed
];
wp_update_post( $my_post );
}

Nope, no joy :(

It doesn't work
Rempty comments:
Please can you add this after
$author_name = get_the_author_meta( 'display_name', $post_author ); // Adjust as needed
just for test
echo $author_name . ' Job ' . $date_formatted.' '.$post_id ;
exit;
And when you save a post from your form, will appear a blank page with the values of author date and post_id

Maybe can you use the web developer toolbar and check the ajax response in the Network TAB

Thanks for your help but I'd rather just get someone here to solve it. Good luck.
Bob answers:
does above function work without using wpuf for you?
however please try slightly modified code
add_action( 'wpuf_add_post_after_insert', 'wpuf_alter_title' );
add_action( 'wpuf_edit_post_after_update', 'wpuf_alter_title' );
function wpuf_alter_title ( $post_id){
$post_object=get_post($post_id);
$post_date = $post_object->post_date;
$format_date = DateTime::createFromFormat( 'Y-m-d H:i:s', $post_date );
$date_formatted = $format_date->format( 'Y-m-d' ); // Set correct to display here
$post_author = $post_object->post_author;
$author_name = get_the_author_meta( 'display_name', $post_author ); // Adjust as needed
$my_post = array(
'ID' => $post_id,
'post_title' => $author_name . ' Job ' . $date_formatted // Change as needed
);
// unhook this function so it doesn't loop infinitely
remove_action('save_post', 'wpuf_alter_title');
wp_update_post( $my_post );
// re-hook this function
add_action('save_post', 'wpuf_alter_title');
}

PM me if you need help.

@Reigel I'm not going to PM you. Last time I did that you tried to charge me over $100. If you want to be part of this website then post your help here like everyone else. Good luck.
Reigel Gallarde comments:
You might have mistaken me for somebody else.. I have tried searching over our past conversation and I have not found anything that I mention about $100... I only have once involved in your code problem and [[LINK href="http://wpquestions.com/question/showLoggedIn/id/10609"]]this was it[[/LINK]], it was a success, we even have some follow up conversation over PM. Then the next problem/task/question you sent a PM on me. You offered 50 AUD, (you described it as "a simple WordPress function using comment meta" ) I did not reply for I was busy on another project.
as for this question, Rempty's answer is nearly correct or maybe correct. There might be some other problems involved. I can't guess...

@Reigel, I sincerely apologise, it was another well known contributor here. You have never done suck a thing and in fact you have given great help to me in the past. Sorry for the mistake.
It seems there may be another under lying problem. I'll investigate a bit more. I'm posting without any content as well so i'll test it a bit more.
