I use a custom post type “profile” and another “card”. The first allows you to add information about a cosplay (username, first name, date of birth, profile picture, etc..). Thereafter, another custom post type “gallery-cosplay”, allows me to add galleries for each cosplay. You can see an example at: http://shingo-temple.fr/galleries-de-cosplay

So I wrote two functions. The first allows you to change the title of the gallery with the nickname and the name of the gallery:

 add_action('save_post', 'modify_post_title');

	function modify_post_title($post_id) {
		
		 if ( defined('DOING_AUTOSAVE') && DOING_AUTOSAVE ) 
          return;
		
		 if ( ! wp_is_post_revision( $post_id ) ) {
		 		
		 
		 if('cosplay-gallery' == get_post_type($post_id) && get_field('card', $post_id)) {
		 	foreach(get_field('card') as $post_object) {
				$value = get_field('pseudo', $post_object->ID);
				$post_title = $value.' : '.get_field('gallery_name', $post_id);
				
				
			}
			
		 } 
	
	}
		 
		 if('acf' != get_post_type($post_id)) {
		 if ($post_title == '') { $post_title = $_POST['post_title'];}
		 remove_action('save_post', 'modify_post_title');
		 $arg = array();
				$arg['ID'] = $post_id;
				$arg['post_title'] = $post_title;
				wp_update_post( $arg );
				add_action('save_post', 'modify_post_title');
		 }
	} 

The second is to change the permalink:

 function append_slug($data) {
    global $post_id;
    
    if('cosplay-gallery' == get_post_type($post_id) && get_field('card', $post_id)) {
		foreach(get_field('card') as $post_object) {
		$value = get_field('pseudo', $post_object->ID);
		$slug = $value.' : '.get_field('gallery_name', $post_id);

		}

		if ($data['post_name'] != $slug) {
        $data['post_name'] = sanitize_title($slug, $post_ID);
    }

   
} else {
	if ($data['post_name'] != $data['post_title']) {
        $data['post_name'] = sanitize_title($data['post_title'], $post_ID);
}
}
 return $data;
}

For now, I must save a draft for it to work. Moreover, when I upload images of cosplay, they are renamed “$pseudo.’-‘. $gallery.’-‘.45646.jpg”. If I do not save the draft, it is impossible to have the nickname of cosplay, or the name of the gallery because I use a custom relationship field that points to the profile and custom text field where i write the name of the gallery.

Ditto for custom post type “card”. This allow gather all the information about a game and share them with other custom post types “review” and “preview”. So I need to retrieve the information in the custom field before they are stored in the database.

edit: I analyzed the source code of the admin. I could see where the value to retrieve. It remains for me to understand how to use this value with jquery. Thank you!
