On a multisite installation at example.com we would like to use a cred form on site X (example.com/site-X) to create a post on site Y (example.com/site-Y).

We already tried to perform a site switch with the switch_to_blog function in the cred_before save_data hook, but the post is not created on the target site.

It would be great if you could provide us with a working solution...

Thanks in advance!

Hi Tako

Thank you for contacting our support forum.

Unfortunately no this wouldnt be possible because CRED can only create posts to its local site. Meaning wherever CRED is installed it can only add posts to that website's database.

Thanks,
Shane
