I can only think that either gravity forms doesn't use $post_data["post_content"] for it's post boy field, which seems unlikely, or the $post_data["post_content"] is not given a value until after this hook has fired. I am using "Create content template" with my post body field, could this effect it?</strong></p> <p>I am using the following code (full source in the following pastebin) to check if a form submission has certain checkboxes ticked, and if so go through a few conditionals to add some extra custom taxonomy terms and in 1 instance create a copy of the submitted post.</p> <p>This is basically working fine, The issue is that the copied post doesn't have all the information. There is no post content and the custom terms are missing. I am wondering if their is anything I am missing here specific to gravity forms. </p> <p>Here is how I am creating the copy of the post</p> <pre><code>$postCopy = array( &#39;comment_status&#39; =&gt; $post_data[&#39;comment_status&#39;], // &#39;closed&#39; means no comments. &#39;post_author&#39; =&gt; $post_data[&#39;post_author&#39;], //The user ID number of the author. &#39;post_content&#39; =&gt; $post_data[&#39;post_content&#39;], //The full text of the post. &#39;post_date_gmt&#39; =&gt; $post_data[&#39;post_date_gmt&#39;], //The time post was made, in GMT. &#39;post_name&#39; =&gt; $post_data[&#39;post_name&#39;], // The name (slug) for your post &#39;post_status&#39; =&gt; $post_data[&#39;post_status&#39;], //Set the status of the new post. &#39;post_title&#39; =&gt; $post_data[&#39;post_title&#39;], //The title of your post. &#39;post_type&#39; =&gt; &#39;apprentice&#39;, //You may want to insert a regular post, page, link, a menu item or some custom post type &#39;tax_input&#39; =&gt; $post_data[&#39;tax_input&#39;] ); $postCopy[&quot;tax_input&quot;][&#39;college&#39;][] = &#39;sussex-downs&#39;; wp_insert_post( $postCopy, $wp_error );</code></pre> <p>It seems I have an issue with both 'post_content' =&gt; $post_data['post_content'] and 'tax_input' =&gt; $post_data['tax_input']</p> <p>Full Source : <a href="http://pastebin.com/gsw7yAmm" rel="nofollow">http://pastebin.com/gsw7yAmm</a></p> <p>Thanks </p>
