Form to Custom Post Type -Again

    I am attempting to implement custom post types via the instructions on http://forum.gravityhelp.com/topic/add-a-form-to-create-a-new-custom-post-type. I would have posted this there but the topic is closed. As of Wordpress 3.01 the filter update_post_type() no longer appears to work.

    This example code:

    add_filter("gform_post_data", "update_post_type",10,2);
    function set_post_type($post_data, $form){
    echo"<pre>";print_r($post_data);echo"</pre>";
    
        if($form["id"] == '1'){
            $post_data["post_type"] = "investments";
        }
        return $post_data;
    }

    results in this error:

    Fatal error: Cannot redeclare set_post_type() (previously declared in post.php:1062) in wp-content/themes/twentyten/functions.php on line 153

    Any suggestions?

    Thanks!

  2. That is because that example code is old and stil using "set_post_type" and not "update_post_type" which is why the error is about "set_post_type". Change the code to use update_post_type instead and give it a try.

    Look at line 3 in the above code. function set_post_type is incorrect. Where you made the change isn't where the actual function call takes place.
