In theory, after this form gets submitted and a post created, the status of the post should be "Pending".
However, after it goes through the WooCom checkout process the post ends up "Published".

I haven't reported this as a bug because it's "possible" that the following code snippet is causing the problem.

// copy form data to the translated post version with wpml
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)||($form_data['id']==6351)){

do_action( 'wpml_make_post_duplicates', $post_id );
}
}

Using:
Toolset CRED WPML Integration
Version 0.5

Toolset Forms
Version 2.5.6

Toolset Forms Commerce
Version 1.8.1

Toolset Layouts
Version 2.6.4

Toolset Types
Version 3.3.10

Toolset Views
Version 3.1.3

Any suggestions?

Hello,

I have tried it in a fresh WordPress installation + the latest version of Toolset + WPML + Woocommerce plugins + the custom PHP codes you mentioned above, it works fine.
I can see the new post and all duplicated posts are in "Pending" status.

Please check these:
Edit the post forms (ID 6350 and ID 6351)
In section "Toolset Forms Commerce", make sure you are using below options:
- Purchase processing: Pending Review
- Purchase complete: Published
These option will overide the options "Set this post status" in your screenshot:

100% Correct.

Maybe the "help text" on the admin interface should point out that the settings can/will be overwritten by the Forms Commerce Module if one is activated.

You can close the ticket.
