I have a button to duplicate my posts from the frontend using this hook:

//Duplicate posts
add_action('cred_save_data_376', 'duplicate_post', 10, 2);
function duplicate_post($post_id, $form_data) {
// get data of original post
$post = get_post( $form_data['container_id'], ARRAY_A );
// update the new post with this data
$post['ID'] = $post_id;
$post['post_title'] = 'Copia de ' . $post['post_title'];
$post['status'] = '_draft';

wp_update_post( $post );
// get fields of original post
$fields = get_post_custom( $form_data['container_id'] );
// update the new post with these fields
foreach ($fields as $key => $values) {
foreach ($values as $value) {
add_post_meta($post_id, $key, $value, false);
}
}
}

And this other Hooks to get todays date and +365 days:

//Todays date
add_shortcode('wpv-post-today', 'today_shortcode');
function today_shortcode() {
return time();
}

//+365 date
add_shortcode('wpv-post-masdias', 'masdias_shortcode');
function masdias_shortcode() {
return strtotime('+365 days', time());}

What I need is to duplicate the post and use the todays date for [wpcf-fecha-de-inicio'] (post start date) and +365 days date to [wpcf-fecha-de-fin] (Post end date).
How can I add this to the hook?

Thanks in advance!

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Well - what if you try to add following two lines of code within your duplicate_post function.

// added by toolset
update_post_meta($post_id,'wpcf-fecha-de-inicio',time());
update_post_meta($post_id,'wpcf-fecha-de-fin',strtotime('+365 days', time()));

Do you see the correct time is saved?

Thanks Minesh! It works like a charm! 😀

One thing more:
The post status of the copied post appears always as published.
Can you check my code and tell if I've made any mistake?

Thanks again for your help!

Could you please try to use following line of code and try to resolve your issue:

$post['post_status'] = 'draft';

[Minesh]

could you please confirm - the solution I shared works for you or not?
