Build post title

This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.

Problem:
Want to build the post title for Products CPT only.
Solution:
You can use get_post_type function.

add_action('cred_save_data', 'build_post_title', 10, 2);
function build_post_title($post_id, $form_data) {
    if ( get_post_type( $post_id ) == 'slug_post_type' ) {
        if ($form_data['id']==98 || 216) {
            $field1 = get_post_meta($post_id, 'wpcf-name-1', true);
            $field2 = get_post_meta($post_id, 'wpcf-name-2', true);
              
                
            $post_title=$field1.' + '.$field2;
            $slug = sanitize_title($post_title);
            wp_update_post(array('ID'=>$post_id, 'post_title'=>$post_title,'post_name' => $slug));
        }
    }
}

Hello I have this code

add_action('cred_save_data', 'build_post_title', 10, 2);
function build_post_title($post_id, $form_data) {
 
if ($form_data['id']==98 || 216) {
$field1 = get_post_meta($post_id, 'wpcf-name-1', true);
$field2 = get_post_meta($post_id, 'wpcf-name-2', true);

  
$post_title=$field1.' + '.$field2;
$slug = sanitize_title($post_title);
wp_update_post(array('ID'=>$post_id, 'post_title'=>$post_title,'post_name' => $slug));
}
}

However this code builds the post title like that for all post types.
I'd like to limit it to products only.

Please help.

Regards,
Nick

Hi Nicholas,

Thank you for contacting Toolset support. You can use get_post_type function.

Here is updated code:

add_action('cred_save_data', 'build_post_title', 10, 2);
function build_post_title($post_id, $form_data) {
	if ( get_post_type( $post_id ) == 'slug_post_type' ) {
		if ($form_data['id']==98 || 216) {
			$field1 = get_post_meta($post_id, 'wpcf-name-1', true);
			$field2 = get_post_meta($post_id, 'wpcf-name-2', true);
			 
			   
			$post_title=$field1.' + '.$field2;
			$slug = sanitize_title($post_title);
			wp_update_post(array('ID'=>$post_id, 'post_title'=>$post_title,'post_name' => $slug));
		}
	}
}

⇒ Please update ‘slug_post_type’ with ‘product’ cpt slug.
