This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
The issue here is that the user wanted to dynamically generate their post title based on the custom field inputs.
Solution:
This can be done by using the hook below.
function ttd_save_data_action($post_id, $form_data){
// Change your CRED Form "ID" accordingly below
if ($form_data['id']==ID){
//Declare the content of your variables, change "your_custom_field_slug" accordingly
$custom_value = get_post_meta( $post_id, 'wpcf-your_custom_field_slug', true );//get posts' Date field value (timestamp)
$custom_title = gmdate("m-d-Y", $custom_value);//convert timestamp to m-d-y for output
//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', 'ttd_save_data_action',10,2);
Ofcourse this will need to be adopted to fit your case but this is generally how it is done

Creating a post form and want to set the Post title to the concatenation of 2 fields
Gender and Age Group
e.g.
Geneder Mens slug gender
Age Group Open slug age-group
Post Title Mens Open Desired title = gender + space + age-group
I currently have a php function that does this but it would be better if the code or configuration is in the form so it always gets moved with the form.
Thanks in advance of your response
