Thank you for you reply Waqar,
Let me give you a bit of extra information on the structure, and intent of this website, and this will hopefully clarify the case.
The abstract:
The site is a Guild for authors that can be hired to perform various functions from proofreading to editing documents. Each Editor/user must have a WordPress user account for this we have created a user registration system.
Once the editor/user has been registered and verified on WordPress they must then create a profile in the member's section. The member's section is made up of one CPT ( Add New Editor) and all the custom fields have been set up there.
Once the user has been registered they are then routed to the following page
versteckter Link; that contain the "new editors step 1" post form (id 1391) that is nested in a content template "new editors form step 1" id 1402 and this is the template for the page versteckter Link.
There is a function that is executed once the page is updated
add_filter('cred_success_redirect', 'step2_redirect_func',10,3);
function step2_redirect_func($url, $post_id, $form_data)
{
if ($form_data['id']==1391)
{
$arr = array('content-template-id'=>1403); /*the step 2 template ID*/
$url = add_query_arg($arr, $url);
}
return $url;
So once the "post form" has been updated the next form is then opened "new editors step 2 " id 1439" nested in template "new editors form step 2" id 1403.
There is then a function
add_filter('cred_success_redirect', 'step3_redirect_func',10,3);
function step3_redirect_func($url, $post_id, $form_data)
{
if ($form_data['id']==1396)
{
$arr = array('content-template-id'=>1404); /*the step 3 template ID*/
$url = add_query_arg($arr, $url);
}
return $url;
}
this function as with the first one then opens up the next screen for steps 3 and 4 respecctively.
Once the 4 th step has been completed the profile is then presented to the admin for approval.
Once the approval has been granted the user is notified where after they must then complete the profile completeness page
They are supplied with a link to open the profile completeness page
versteckter Link; ( this is where the problem is now manifesting)
The process here is exactly the same as add new members profile.
From this point on the editor/member will now complete the fields in the custom post type "add new editor. " the first form added a new editor profile with a limited number of fields.
At this stage the profile completeness form does have the same content on the first 4 pages as what was on the "add-new-member-profile" page. Once they have entered past the first four "steps" they will then be able to complete the non-updated fields in the CPT.
Step 1
The structure here is the same:
page - /profile-completeness with a template
"Editors profile completeness form 1" id 3834"
with a nested post form
"Update Editors Profile Step 01" id 1437
with a filter function:
add_filter('cred_success_redirect', 'step2b_redirect_func',10,3);
function step2b_redirect_func($url, $post_id, $form_data)
{
if ($form_data['id']==1437)
{
$arr = array('content-template-id'=>1551); /*the step 2 template ID*/
$url = add_query_arg($arr, $url); steps
}
return $url;
}
This process is then completed in 8 more steps. I am giving you step 2 so you can establish the pattern
Step 2
content template "Editors profile completeness form 1" id1551"
with a nested post form
"Update Editors Profile Step 01" id 1439
with a filter function:
add_filter('cred_success_redirect', 'step3b_redirect_func',10,3);
function step3b_redirect_func($url, $post_id, $form_data)
{
if ($form_data['id']==1439)
{
$arr = array('content-template-id'=>1552); /*the step 3 template ID*/
$url = add_query_arg($arr, $url);
}
return $url;
This process continues through all 9 steps until the profile has been completed.
The first phase works like expected it is at the start of the second phase that the error is generated.
Christian Cox has been instrumental in helping us set up this structure. He did supply us with this link https://toolset.com/course-lesson/how-to-create-custom-searches-and-relationships-for-users/#how-do-i-prevent-users-from-creating-more-than-one-contractor-post to explain how the dependencies will work from the user to the editor's profile. the section about implementation - showcase explained the dependencies.
I hope this will give you a bit more clarification on the process.
