CRED is not fully resetting the Post Object when a Form is sent with AJAX

Symptoms

There is an issue with certain scenarios where a custom shortcode is used and the CRED form is sent using AJAX.

Let’s consider the following example where we add a custom shortcode to a CRED  Post Form that is submitted using AJAX. This custom shortcode shows the ID of a current page holding the form:

[get_post_id]
function get_post_id(){
   $my_id = get_the_ID();
   return $my_id;
}
add_shortcode('get_post_id', 'get_post_id');

WordPress will “explode” the shortcode in the CRED form with the correct page ID, but on submitting it shows a wrong ID.

Workaround

The fix for this issue will be included in the next CRED release.
