    Hello,

    maybe somebody can help me.

    I want to edit the post title after someone clicks the Update Button on the preview Page.

    Unfortunately I can’t find a suitable hook.

    Or is there a better way to adjust the title?

    Best Regards

    Tom

    Can you explain a bit more, possibly with an example?
    What changes do you want to make to the Post Title as entered by the user? And why?

    Thanks

    In my directory the user can enter first name, last name and Job Qualifications and so on.

    Now it often happens that the user enters different variants of his Title and Qualifications.

    Now I want to set the field .post_title to hidden and compile it from the other (Select) fields.

    This ensures that a certain syntax is adhered to.
    We have a duty to observe certain legal notations.

    Greetings

    Hello,

    this is not a functionality of GD, but is something that is regularly accomplished for WordPress with 3rd party plugins like this one: https://wordpress.org/plugins/auto-post-title/ , which plugin would likely need customization from a developer to make use of GD custom fields.

    I will flag your question for the developers in case they have an idea for you about altering the title after submit.

    Thank you, the problem of legal requirements could have some.
    Is there no hook after preview or save the Post?
    I also wanted to check the number of tags and so on.

    Hi Tom,

    Things will be changing in GDv2 but for now i think the hook u want is

    $request_info = apply_filters('geodir_action_get_request_info', $request_info);

    This filters the save listing request info.

    Thanks,

    Stiofan

    Hello Stiofan,
    i do that now: 

    

    
add_action('save_post','save_post_gd_place');
function save_post_gd_place($post_id)
{
  	//echo 'listing_type:' . $_REQUEST['listing_type'];	
	if(isset($_REQUEST['listing_type']) && 'gd_place' == esc_attr($_REQUEST['listing_type']))
    {
		$request_info = apply_filters('geodir_action_get_request_info', $request_info);
		print_r($request_info);
		echo 'xxx';
    }
}
    

    But it doesn’t seem right.
    
Can you give me an example?

    Not tested but something like below:
    

    

    add_filter('geodir_action_get_request_info','_my_edit_save_request');
function _my_edit_save_request($request_info){

    //print_r($request_info);exit; // for testing

    // anything changed here will change the post info
    $request_info['post_title' = 'zzzzz';

    return $request_info;
}
