[Resolved] CRED duplicating posts, one with an auto-draft title

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

Problem:
Publishing posts via CRED is producing duplicate posts, the second with an auto-draft title.

Solution:
This is a known issue when the CRED form includes a featured image field and Relevanssi is active, and there is a workaround described here: https://toolset.com/errata/cred-auto-draft-posts-created-when-relevannsi-cred-and-featured-images-are-used/

Hi

I am trying to:
Let users make a blog/newsitem

Link to a page where the issue can be seen:
hidden link
Only it doesn't show, because I delete all the Drafts.

The problem is: when publishing two posts are made one with title like this: CRED Auto Draft 282ef5e5585ab7e33389b28cdaf5e755. In this post there is no text, only the category and tags.
The other is with the good title and text, but no category and tags.

My reference for building it is the tutorial site 'Travel destinations'. I do exactly the same and also tried to make new forms but that doesn't help.
On the account-page for my members people can make posts and edit them.
Also with editing things go wrong: they can see no featured image and no category and tags.

kind greetings,
Charlotte

Hi Charlotte

This is a known-issue relating to forms with featured images on sites that use Relevanssi, described here: https://toolset.com/errata/cred-auto-draft-posts-created-when-relevannsi-cred-and-featured-images-are-used/

It has just come to light and we'll be working on a solution soon.

The linked erratum mentions a workaround to use in the meantime until the issue is fixed.

I'll escalate this thread and attach it to the existing internal ticket, and I'll let you know when there is a fix available.

Hi Nigel,
Thanks for the quick reply.
I tried first the code from the Relevanssi post you mentioned and it worked but didn't make it nice.
So in the end I deactivated Relevanssi.

Maybe I can activate it again when there is a fix.

Bye, have a nice day,
Charlotte
