Use with Blog2Social plugin

I’m not familiar with that particular plugin, but it sounds like there are programmatic requirements (under the hood) that are not happening for submitted posts. Do you know if there is some specific route or hook that needs called for the other plugin to work?

I am asking the plugin author that,

I actually have another plugin called Business Directory that allows users to post on the front end to create a custom post type, and that does work, as well as the backend , so maybe the hook or function that is used is different to create the post?

Yeah maybe, you would need to do some tests to determine if everything works as needed.

Well that’s the thing. I have done the tests in the backend and with a different plugin that creates custom post types, but for some reason it does not seem to work when submitted with your plugin on front end, so I was curious what mechanism / function, this plugin uses to actually create the post, I do know that it needs to be authenticated with the synced user, which I have been testing with. I understand this is not your issue.

Thanks again,
Peter

It’s a bit complicated to explain, but you are welcome to explore the logic in the code itself. A good place to dive in would be around line 1262 in user-submitted-posts.php function is named usp_createPublicSubmission(). That function does most of the heavy lifting, and also ties in with other functionality, images, etc.

Thanks Jeff,

I appreciate your effort here.

Hey @peteincali2103, I hope you got this sorted. Haven’t heard back in awhile, so gonna go ahead and mark this ticket as “resolved” to help keep things organized. Feel free to post again with any further questions or feedback. Thank you.
