Hi,
As discussed in this tread: https://toolset.com/forums/topic/custom-title-from-post-form/ I am now able to autogenerate a post title when submitting a form.

This is the code used:

***********
function my_save_data_action5($post_id, $form_data){
// Change your CRED Form "ID" accordingly below
if ($form_data['id']==1577){

//Declare the content of your variables, change "your_custom_field_slug" accordingly
$custom_title = 'Rapportnummer ' . $post_id;

//collect data and define new title
$my_post = array(
'ID' => $post_id,
'post_title' => $custom_title,
'post_name' => $custom_title,

);

// Update the post into the database
wp_update_post( $my_post );

}
}
add_action('cred_save_data', 'my_save_data_action5’,10,2);

// END autotittel5

****************

I have 30 post forms on this site, and I am wondering if it is possible to make this work on several forms (spesific forms), rather than duplicating the code over and over again. (With tweeks to accomodate the spesific post form id)

Maybe something like this?:

******

function my_save_data_action($post_id, $form_data){
// Change your CRED Form "ID" accordingly below
if ($form_data['id']==1577,1578,1579,1580){

//Declare the content of your variables, change "your_custom_field_slug" accordingly
$custom_title = 'Rapportnummer ' . $post_id;

//collect data and define new title
$my_post = array(
'ID' => $post_id,
'post_title' => $custom_title,
'post_name' => $custom_title,

);

// Update the post into the database
wp_update_post( $my_post );

}
}
add_action('cred_save_data', 'my_save_data_action’,10,2);

// END autotittel5

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Yes - To apply the same code on multiple form IDs you should try to change the if condition as given under:

For example:

// add your form IDs here
$forms = array( 1577,1578,1579,1580 );
if ( in_array($form_data['id'], $forms) ){

Hi Minesh,
Could you provide the entire code? When I attempt to combine the old code with you addition I get a php line error.

The forms this should apply to is: 1577, 1580, 1506 and 1284

Please try to use the following code:

function my_save_data_action5($post_id, $form_data){
// Change your CRED Form "ID" accordingly below

$forms = array( 1577,1580,1506,1284);
if ( in_array($form_data['id'], $forms) ){ 

//Declare the content of your variables, change "your_custom_field_slug" accordingly
$custom_title = 'Rapportnummer ' . $post_id;

//collect data and define new title
$my_post = array(
'ID' => $post_id,
'post_title' => $custom_title,
'post_name' => $custom_title,

);

// Update the post into the database
wp_update_post( $my_post );

}
}
add_action('cred_save_data', 'my_save_data_action5',10,2);
