This thread is resolved. Here is a description of the problem and solution.
Problem:
The issue here is that the user wanted to set the parent post automatically when creating a chid post. Now the user will CREATE that parent post and when creating the child that parent should be set automatically.
Solution:
Add the following to your functions.php file
// Add Shortcode
function user_post_id( $atts ) {
// Attributes
$atts = shortcode_atts(
array(
'author_id' => '',
'cpt' => '',
),
$atts
);
$args = array(
'author' => $atts['author_id'],
'orderby' => 'post_date',
'order' => 'ASC',
'posts_per_page' => 1,
'post_type'=> $atts['cpt']
);
$post=get_posts($args);
return $post[0]->ID;
}
add_shortcode( 'user_post_id', 'user_post_id' );
Then on your CRED form where it has the Parent Field on the edit form page add this as the value [user_post_id author_id="[wpv-current-user info='id']" cpt='post']
