[Timothy]

I have a custom post Private Teachers. I am trying to create a new user form that generates a new user with role Private Teacher and saves the form fields to a Private Teacher cpt. I thought I understood the process but only 2 fields are being saved to the new custom post (website and phone)

This is the form page:

This is my form code:

And I added this code in my functions file:

add_action('cred_save_data', 'my_save_data_action_teacher',10,2);
function my_save_data_action_teacher($post_id, $form_data)
{
    if ($form_data['id']==9210)
    {
        // Create post object
        $new_post_id = wp_insert_post( array(

            'post_content'  => '',
            'post_status'   => 'publish',
            'post_author'   => $post_ID,
            'post_type'     => 'private-teacher'
        ) );
		update_post_meta($new_post_id, 'wpcf-wpv-post-body', $_POST['profile-bio']);
        update_post_meta($new_post_id, 'wpcf-private-teacher-instrument', $_POST['instrument-teaching']);

        // get image URL value from the user
        $user_image = get_user_meta( $post_id, 'wpcf-private-teacher-photo', true );

            // delete the image URL from user's custom field
            delete_user_meta($post_id, 'wpcf-private-teacher-photo');
        }
    }
}

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

I see with the code you shared, with the wp_insert_post() function you are passing post author as given under:

'post_author' => $post_ID,

But I do not see variable $post_ID, maybe you want to change the post authour to current loggedin user id?

And also, instead of using "cred_save_data" hook, what if you try to use the Toolset Forms hook "cred_submit_complete":
=> https://toolset.com/documentation/programmer-reference/cred-api/#cred_submit_complete

[Timothy]

I just tried with cred_submit_complete and it still does not work. Can you clarify "maybe you want to change the post authour to current loggedin user id?" How do I do this?

[Minesh]

Let me check why its not working.

Can you please send me admin access details and also tell me where exactly you added the code you shared?

*** Please make a FULL BACKUP of your database and website.***
I would also eventually need to request temporary access (WP-Admin and FTP) to your site. Preferably to a test site where the problem has been replicated if possible in order to be of better help and check if some configurations might need to be changed.

I have set the next reply to private which means only you and I have access to it.

[Minesh]

I see you have multiple checkboxes fields and to update the checkboxes fields using PHP. Checkboxes are special fields that stores its value to database table as serialize array.

First of all, I've removed "cred_submit_complete" hook yu added to your child theme's functions.php file and I moved that code to "Custom Code" section offered by Toolset with the code snippet namely "update-checkboxes-field-php":
=> lien caché

Here is the function that should help to update the checkboxes field value to database using PHP:

function ts_checkboxes( $post_id, $field, $option, $action = 'value' ){
 
    if ( isset($post_id) && isset($field) && isset($option) ){
 
        $field_settings = types_get_field( $field );
         
        $field_options = $field_settings['data']['options'];
 
        // Locate the option key
        $key = array_search( $option, array_column( $field_options, 'title' ) );
        $keys = array_keys( $field_options );
        $option_key = $keys[$key];
 
      
        // Get the current post meta value
        $meta = get_post_meta( $post_id, 'wpcf-'.$field, true );
 
        // If action = 'value' just return the value
        if ( $action == 'value' && isset( $meta[$option_key] ) ){
            return $meta[$option_key][0];
        } else {
            // Remove the existing key if it exists (i.e. uncheck)
            // because recommended setting is to save nothing when unchecked
            unset( $meta[$option_key] );
             
            // If $checked == true then add back the key + value
            if ( $action == 'check' ){
                $meta[$option_key] = array($field_options[$option_key]['set_value']);
            }
            update_post_meta( $post_id, 'wpcf-'.$field, $meta );        
        }
    }
}

And I've called the above function to update the checkboxes fields as you can see with the following hook code:

// Saving Cred Generic Fields Data for private teacher registration form
add_action('cred_submit_complete', 'my_save_data_action_teacher',10,2);
function my_save_data_action_teacher($post_id, $form_data)
{
    if ($form_data['id']==9210)
    {
        // Create post object
        $new_post_id = wp_insert_post( array(
            'post_title'    => $_POST['user_firstname'],
            'post_content'  => '',
            'post_status'   => 'publish',
          //  'post_author'   => $post_ID,
            'post_type'     => 'private-teacher'
        ) );
      
      
      ///// update checkboxes fields based on select values php 
      if(isset($_POST['teaching-location']) and !empty($_POST['teaching-location'])) {
      		foreach($_POST['teaching-location'] as $k=>$v):
        		ts_checkboxes( $post_id, 'private-teacher-location', $v, 'check' );
        	endforeach;
      }else{
      	update_post_meta($post_id, 'wpcf-private-teacher-location', array());
      }
      
       if(isset($_POST['teaching-modality']) and !empty($_POST['teaching-modality'])) {
      		foreach($_POST['teaching-modality'] as $k=>$v):
        		ts_checkboxes( $post_id, 'private-teacher-course-modality', $v, 'check' );
        	endforeach;
      }else{
      	update_post_meta($post_id, 'wpcf-private-teacher-course-modality', array());
      }
      
       if(isset($_POST['experience-level-taught']) and !empty($_POST['experience-level-taught'])) {
      		foreach($_POST['experience-level-taught'] as $k=>$v):
        		ts_checkboxes( $post_id, 'private-teacher-experience-level', $v, 'check' );
        	endforeach;
      }else{
      	update_post_meta($post_id, 'wpcf-private-teacher-experience-level', array());
      }
      
       if(isset($_POST['instrument-teaching']) and !empty($_POST['instrument-teaching'])) {
      		foreach($_POST['instrument-teaching'] as $k=>$v):
        		ts_checkboxes( $post_id, 'private-teacher-instrument', $v, 'check' );
        	endforeach;
      }else{
      	update_post_meta($post_id, 'wpcf-private-teacher-instrument', array());
      }
      
      if(isset($_POST['instrument-family']) and !empty($_POST['instrument-family'])) {
      		foreach($_POST['instrument-family'] as $k=>$v):
        		ts_checkboxes( $post_id, 'private-teacher-instrument-family', $v, 'check' );
        	endforeach;
      }else{
      	update_post_meta($post_id, 'wpcf-private-teacher-instrument-family', array());
      }
      
       if(isset($_POST['ages-taught']) and !empty($_POST['ages-taught'])) {
      		foreach($_POST['ages-taught'] as $k=>$v):
        		ts_checkboxes( $post_id, 'private-teacher-ages-taught', $v, 'check' );
        	endforeach;
      }else{
      	update_post_meta($post_id, 'wpcf-private-teacher-ages-taught', array());
      }
      
       if(isset($_POST['experience-level-taught']) and !empty($_POST['experience-level-taught'])) {
      		foreach($_POST['experience-level-taught'] as $k=>$v):
        		ts_checkboxes( $post_id, 'private-teacher-experience-level', $v, 'check' );
        	endforeach;
      }else{
      	update_post_meta($post_id, 'wpcf-private-teacher-experience-level', array());
      }
      
		update_post_meta($new_post_id, 'wpcf-wpv-post-body', $_POST['profile-bio']);

        update_post_meta($new_post_id, 'wpcf-private-teacher-website', $_POST['your-website']);
        update_post_meta($new_post_id, 'wpcf-private-teacher-teaching-certifications', $_POST['teaching-certificate-1']);


        // get image URL value from the user
        $user_image = get_user_meta( $post_id, 'wpcf-private-teacher-photo', true );
        // if image URL exists
        if (!empty($user_image)) {
            // set the image URL as new post's custom field value
            update_post_meta($new_post_id, 'wpcf-private-teacher-photo', $user_image);
            // delete the image URL from user's custom field
            delete_user_meta($post_id, 'wpcf-private-teacher-photo');
        }
    }
}

Can you please confirm it works as expected now.

[Timothy]

That gave me the "there has been a critical error on this site" page, but the site is fine overall. And it did generate a new cpt and wp user, but no fields were saved.

Perhaps I should create a staging site for this?

[Minesh]

We have to use the $new_post_id instead of the $post_id to update the checkboxes field.

So I've adjusted $new_post_id as given under, for example:

ts_checkboxes( $new_post_id, 'private-teacher-location', $v, 'check' );

Here is the full code:

add_action('cred_submit_complete', 'my_save_data_action_teacher',10,2);
function my_save_data_action_teacher($post_id, $form_data) {
  
    if ($form_data['id']==9210) {
        // Create post object
        $new_post_id = wp_insert_post( array(
            'post_title'    => $_POST['user_firstname'],
            'post_content'  => '',
            'post_status'   => 'publish',
          //  'post_author'   => $post_ID,
            'post_type'     => 'private-teacher'
        ) );
      
      
      ///// update checkboxes fields 
      if(isset($_POST['teaching-location']) and !empty($_POST['teaching-location'])) {
      		foreach($_POST['teaching-location'] as $k=>$v):
        		ts_checkboxes( $new_post_id, 'private-teacher-location', $v, 'check' );
        	endforeach;
      }else{
      	update_post_meta($new_post_id, 'wpcf-private-teacher-location', array());
      }
      
       if(isset($_POST['teaching-modality']) and !empty($_POST['teaching-modality'])) {

Can you please check now, it should work.

Same result, critical error and no data saved.

[Minesh]

This is really strange.

Can you please setup a staging site and send me admin access details and let me review what's going wrong with your setup.

*** Please make a FULL BACKUP of your database and website.***
I would also eventually need to request temporary access (WP-Admin and FTP) to your site. Preferably to a test site where the problem has been replicated if possible in order to be of better help and check if some configurations might need to be changed.

I have set the next reply to private which means only you and I have access to it.

The issue was with the checkboxes field "Private Teacher Course Modality" you have setup the one of the option text with apostrophe, for example "In-person (at students' homes)"
=> lien caché

So I've removed that aphostrophe in the option, it looks like now: "In-person (at students homes)"

And save the above custom field group.

Then I've also modified the code and add to "Custom Code" section with the code snippet namely " update-checkboxes-field-php" as given under:
=> lien caché

//// function to retrive the selected checkboxes options to save with php
function get_selected_checkboxes_options($generic_field_slug,$custom_field_slug) {

  	   $field_settings = types_get_field( $custom_field_slug );
       $field_options = $field_settings['data']['options'];
 	   $all_option_keys = array_keys( $field_options );
       
      $selected_options = array();
      if(isset($_POST[$generic_field_slug])) {
        
      		foreach($_POST[$generic_field_slug] as $k=>$v):
        		
        		$found_key = array_search( $v, array_column( $field_options, 'title' ) );
        
$selected_options[$all_option_keys[$found_key]] = array($field_options[$all_option_keys[$found_key]]['set_value']);
      
        	  
        	endforeach;
        }
  		return $selected_options;
  
}

You should make sure to map all your fields that you want to save correctly with your post type and generic field.

Please let me know if you require further help, if yes, I will have to split this ticket.

[Timothy]

Excellent, yes this works now. Thank you. I should have thought about that apostrophe before. The only other issue is the field for Teaching Certificates, which in toolset I have as a single line field that allows multiple instances. Is it possible to handle this with generic fields? Or should I create a separate ticket for this issue?

Tim

[Minesh]
