Problem:
The main issue being described here is that the user wanted to update their custom field using php.
Solution:
To do this you will need to use the function in the link below.
https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/update_post_meta
A practical example of this can be seen below.
function save_post_func_2134( $post_id ) { $post_type = 'doctor-order'; if ( $post_type == get_post_type ( $post_id ) ) { $my_post = array( 'ID' => $post_id, 'order-id' => 'dts-' . $post_id, 'post_title' => 'dts-' . $post_id ); update_post_meta( $post_id, 'wpcf-order-id', 'dts-'.$post_id); remove_action('save_post', 'save_post_func_2134'); wp_update_post( $my_post ); } } add_action( 'save_post', 'save_post_func_2134' );
