Hi,

i wanna set the post title from the value of two acf fields and I do it like the following (function great):

  add_action( 'pre_get_posts', 'js_search_filter' );

  function my_post_title_updater( $post_id ) {

	if ( get_post_type() == 'video' ) {

		$my_post = array();
		$my_post['post_title'] = get_field( 'interpret_video', $post_id ) . ': ' . substr(get_field( 'titel_video', $post_id ), 0, 30) . '';
		
		// Update the post into the database
		wp_update_post( $my_post );

	}

}
 
// run after ACF saves the $_POST['fields'] data
add_action('acf/save_post', 'my_post_title_updater', 20);

But now I wanna update the permalink of the now generatet title. How I gotta do this ?

    $post_name = sanitize_title($post_title);
    $my_post['post_title'] = $post_title;
    $my_post['post_name'] = $post_name;
    
    // Update the post into the database
    wp_update_post( $my_post );

  }
