Ok thanks. I came across this page — https://w3lessons.info/2018/02/07/php-text-to-speech-amazon-polly/ so I will try it out.

Ok, no problem.

On a frontend page template I have a form for creating posts, and to do so I have the following code (snippets from my full code) –

if (get_query_var('site')) {
$v_Id = get_query_var('site');
$v_title = get_the_title($v_Id);
$voice_id = get_post_meta($v_Id, 'amazon_polly_voice_id');
$sample_rate = get_post_meta($v_Id, 'amazon_polly_sample_rate');
$amazon_polly_settings_hash = get_post_meta($v_Id, 'amazon_polly_settings_hash');
$post_content = get_post_meta($v_Id, 'content', true);
------------
.....$voice_id = $_POST['amazon_polly_voice_id'];
$sample_rate = $_POST['amazon_polly_sample_rate']; .... etc.
-------------
....  $post = array(
                    'ID' => get_query_var('site'),
                    'post_title' => $v_title,
                    'post_content' => $post_content,
                    'post_status' => 'draft',
                    'post_type' => 'v_editor'  // Use a custom post type if you want to
                );
                $pid = wp_insert_post($post); ....
--------
// form fields etc.

I want users to be able to enter text in the form content field and have the audio file created and saved to a custom folder.

I have no problem creating posts, and on the post page I see the audio player is showing, but there’s no audio being created.

On the back end it works as should, so what am I missing for the file to be created on form submission on the front end?

thanks
