Hello,
I have this question. One of my custom fields is a field with users. When someone sends me a text to publish, I make a (custom type) post of it, and select the author in that users-field.
Automatically I am the owner of this post. I like to automatically change the ownership of the post based on the one i selected in the custom field.
Does anyone have an idea how i can realise that?
Thanks in advance for using your brains on this 🙂
Kind regards,
Hans Stavleu
Guess i solved it with the following code:
function action_function_name( $field ) {
global $post;
$id = $post->ID;
$value = get_field('owner',$id);
$args = array(
'ID' => $id,
'post_author' => $value,
);
wp_update_post( $args );
return $field;
}
add_action( 'acf/render_field/name=owner', 'action_function_name', 10, 1 );
