[Resolved] Problem with feature image in Ads not copying to translated version

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

Problem:
How to duplicate the post in ALL configured WPML languages when post is created using CRED form.

Solution:
You can use CRED hook cred_save_data to duplicate the post in all language configured using WPML.

You can use WPML standard action "wpml_make_post_duplicates":

do_action( 'wpml_make_post_duplicates', $post_id );  

You can find proposed solution, in this case, with the following reply:

I set the media translation within WPML as suggested.
https://toolset.com/forums/topic/free-ad-feature-image-doesnt-appear-on-translated-version/
It successfully copied the feature image to translations on EXISTING content.

However, when I tested again by adding a new FREE listing, it didn't copy the feature image.

Please advise what I should do.

Well - to set featured image on translation you need to add following custom code to your current theme's functions.php file:

Could you please try to add following code and check if that help you to fix the issue.

add_action('cred_save_data', 'my_save_data_action',10,2);
function my_save_data_action($post_id, $form_data)
{
// if a specific form
if ($form_data['id']==99999)
{

// add it to saved post meta
$translated_id = apply_filters( 'wpml_object_id', $post_id, 'listing', true, 'es' );
$post_thumbnail_id = get_post_thumbnail_id( $post_id );
set_post_thumbnail( $translated_id, $post_thumbnail_id );

}
}

Where:
- Replace 99999 with your original CRED form Id.

#623525

Tried as you suggested.
But this didn't work.

add_action('cred_save_data', 'my_save_data_action',10,2);
function my_save_data_action($post_id, $form_data)
{
  // if a specific form
  if ($form_data['id']==6350)
  {
  // add it to saved post meta
  $translated_id = apply_filters( 'wpml_object_id', $post_id, 'listing', true, 'es' );
  $post_thumbnail_id = get_post_thumbnail_id( $post_id );
  set_post_thumbnail( $translated_id, $post_thumbnail_id );
 
  }
}

There are ALSO two different but perhaps related problem.

1. When I try to post a PREMIUM AD using may PayPal Sandbox account, the order is held as pending.
I need to go into the WooCommerce Orders list and update the order status from ON HOLD to COMPLETE.
How can I get WooCommerce to automatically save the order as COMPLETE? (Virtual/Downloadable are both checked)?

2. However, once I change the order status to COMPLETE, the site goes ahead and creates the translated version:
a) It DOES copy the feature image BUT
b) It DOESNT use the custom post template. It uses the standard "post" template.
e.g.
hidden link

Please advise.

Well - we will deal here with the featured image issue and please kindly open a new ticket with your each new questions. That will help other users searching on the forum. Thank you for understanding.

Regarding featured image issue: I need access details in order to check whats going wrong there.

*** Please make a FULL BACKUP of your database and website.***
I would also eventually need to request temporary access (WP-Admin and FTP) to your site. Preferably to a test site where the problem has been replicated if possible in order to be of better help and check if some configurations might need to be changed.

I would additionally need your permission to de- and re-activate Plugins and the Theme, and to change configurations on the site. This is also a reason the backup is really important. If you agree to this, please use the form fields I have enabled below to provide temporary access details (wp-admin and FTP).

I have set the next reply to private which means only you and I have access to it.

Ok - finally. I've added following code to your current theme's functions.php file:

add_action('cred_save_data', 'my_save_data_action',10,2);
function my_save_data_action($post_id, $form_data){
  // if a specific form
  if ($form_data['id']==6350){
	  
	   do_action( 'wpml_make_post_duplicates', $post_id );            
  }
}

This will make entire post duplicate to your another language so you will have to adjust your content accordingly.

#624803

OK. Thank you. That appears to work now.
