Tell us what you are trying to do?
I have a shortcode provided by MINESH, to duplicate a custom post called Objet :
- the duplication ix based on a php function also provided by Minesh, and works perfectly
- BUT, the permalink of the new Objet, created by the duplication, is set to : copie-slug-of-the-source-objet
- then, when changing the Title of this new Objet to for example new-objet, the permalink/slug stays the same : copie-slug-of-the-source-objet.

Is there a similar example that we can see?
- see the attached screen shot of the Objet editing form template

The php function is in the Snippets plugin admin page (not in the function.php) :
- it s based on the Yoast Duplicate Post plugin, which is installed

Thank you for your help.

Hi Francesco

First, can I caution you not to post sensitive information in the forum unless we have set up a private reply for you to do so. I have edited your question to remove the site credentials you shared.

Regarding your question, can you clarify the workflow?

It looks like you are using a custom shortcode to add a duplicate post link to the front end, and then you have a function that redirects to the copied post once it is duplicated.

You ask "when changing the Title of this new Objet...".

When and where does the title get changed?

Hi Nigel,

Thank you for your prompt response.

I am sorry, but I opened this ticket because I was not shure that reopening a previous ticket handled by Minesh actually worked, because it was after the deadline...

Fortunately, the reopening did work, and Minesh di find a solution for this issue of updating the custom type slug when submitting it's editing form.
So, this ticket can be closed.

Thank you again.
Best regards,

Francesco De Grandi
