So from this support post that Minesh was the support person for.
https://toolset.com/forums/topic/using-user-account-to-connect-member-profiles-with-articles-via-intermediary-cpt/

I need to be able to do the same thing but with a CRED New Post Form. The latter works only for existing CRED Post forms.

Thank you,

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Well - to adjust the code for your add form - I've added the generic field to your add form as given under:

[cred_generic_field field='_wpcf_belongs_member_id' type='select' class='' urlparam='']
{
"required":0,
"validate_format":0,
"persist":1,
"default":[0],
"options":[
{"value":"0","label":"Select Member Profile"},[wpv-view name="member-profile-list"]
]
}
[/cred_generic_field]

Then, I've adjusted the code that is added to current theme's functions.php as given under:

add_filter( 'wpv_filter_wpv_view_shortcode_output', 'prefix_clean_view_output', 5, 2 );
function prefix_clean_view_output( $out, $id ) {
    if ( $id == '3679' || $id == '3633' ) {
        $start = strpos( $out, '<!-- wpv-loop-start -->' );
        if ( 
            $start !== false
            && strrpos( $out, '<!-- wpv-loop-end -->', $start ) !== false
        ) {
            $start = $start + strlen( '<!-- wpv-loop-start -->' );
            $out = substr( $out , $start );
            $end = strrpos( $out, '<!-- wpv-loop-end -->' );
            $out = substr( $out, 0, $end );
        }
    }
    return $out;
}

add_action('cred_save_data','func_add_writer',10,2);
function func_add_writer($post_id,$form_data) {
	global $current_user;
	
    if ($form_data['id']==3651) {
		
		// fetch existing writer posts and delete it
		$result = get_posts(array(
							'fields' => 'ids',
							'post_type' => 'writer',
							'meta_query' => array(
								array(
								   'key' => '_wpcf_belongs_article_id',
								   'value' => $post_id,
								   )
								   
							 )));
		
		if(count($result) > 0) {
			foreach($result as $k=>$v):
				wp_delete_post($v);
			endforeach;
		}
	
	}
	
	if ($form_data['id']==3651 or $form_data['id']==3633) {
	    // add new writer 
		  $data_arr = array(
				'post_title'=> "writer for article ".$post_id,
				'post_type' => 'writer',
				'post_status' => 'publish',
				'post_author' => get_current_user_id(),
   
                    );
       
		$insert_post_id = wp_insert_post($data_arr);
		
        update_post_meta($insert_post_id, '_wpcf_belongs_article_id',$post_id);
		update_post_meta($insert_post_id, '_wpcf_belongs_member_id',$_POST['_wpcf_belongs_member_id']);
        
    }
}

Could you please confirm it works for both of your add and edit form now.

Thank you Minesh! This should be a feature of the Toolset Product. What you coded would be used by lots of people with Membership accounts wanting to link to articles via an intermediary post type relationship. What you did was make for a very nice user experience outside of WordPress with Toolset Cred and Access. Much better then haveing them go into the WP admin and find the right post type, scroll down to the bottom of the page, and then figure out how to use the relationship editor.

Thank you again and remember, contact me when you are in Seattle and we'll eat dinner in the Space Needle.
