Change post settings

@lamedo

If you want to automatically publish posts based on user role, you need to add additional function using action hooks of WP User Frontend plugin.

Reference:
https://docs.wedevs.com/docs/wp-user-frontend-pro/developer-docs/

You can use wpuf_add_post_after_insert & wpuf_edit_post_after_update action to load your function inside that form.

Thank you

Sorry, I am pretty much a noob in coding, especially in hoooks.

Could someone help me write the code?

@lamedo you can use the following code inside the theme’s functions.php file. The posts submitted by admin will be published directly.

/**
* Set post status published when the user role is admin
*/
function wpuf_update_admin_post_status( $post_id ) 
{
 	
 	if ( current_user_can('administrator') ) 
 	{
		$current_post = array(
		    'ID'           => $post_id,
		    'post_status'   => 'publish',
		);

		wp_update_post( $current_post );  	
 	   
 	}  

}

add_action( 'wpuf_add_post_after_insert', 'wpuf_update_admin_post_status' );
add_action( 'wpuf_edit_post_after_update', 'wpuf_update_admin_post_status' );

Thank you
