Hi,
my datepicker field should only auto filled with the post publish date if nothing insert manually.
Can anyone help me out?
EDIT:
OMG… No it’s workig. I put this code in my functions.php.
For everyone who search for this:
add_action( 'save_post', 'set_post_sortdate', 10,3 );
function set_post_sortdate( $post_id, $post, $update ) {
// Only want to set if this is a new post!
if ( $update ){
return;
}
// Only set for post_type = post!
if ( 'post' !== $post->post_type ) {
return;
}
// Get the default term using the slug, its more portable!
$sortdate = get_the_date('Y-m-d', $post_id);
$field_key = "YOUR_FIELD_NAME";
$value = $sortdate;
update_field( $field_key, $value, $post_id );
}
