I’m trying to do something like:
$rr = do_action("admin_action_duplicate_post_new_draft", 27572);
But I have to pass the variable post with the value 27572 using GET or POST and the variable action with value duplicate_post_new_draft.
Is there a way to do that?
Just found out they have a function for that:
$new_post_id = duplicate_post_create_duplicate(27572, "draft");
But I am getting this error:
Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function duplicate_post_create_duplicate()
Hi @ayrancd
Please do check out our documentation for the Yoast Duplicate Post plugin in order to locate the specific filter or action you need for your use-case:
@mikes41720 I saw that article but I couldn’t make the action dp_duplicate_post work…
Do I need the do_action as well? How do I get the new post ID? Can you pls post a snippet code?
Did you see the php error when I call that function also found in one of your articles??
Just found a solution without using a plugin:
function duplicatePost($post_id, $title, $block, $execution){
$post = get_post($post_id);
$args = array(
'comment_status' => $post->comment_status,
'ping_status' => $post->ping_status,
'post_author' => $new_post_author,
'post_content' => $post->post_content,
'post_excerpt' => $post->post_excerpt,
'post_name' => $post->post_name,
'post_parent' => $post->post_parent,
'post_password' => $post->post_password,
'post_status' => 'draft',
'post_title' => $title,
'post_type' => $post->post_type,
'to_ping' => $post->to_ping,
'menu_order' => $post->menu_order
);
$new_post_id = wp_insert_post($args);
global $wpdb;
$post_meta_infos = $wpdb->get_results("SELECT meta_key, meta_value FROM ydo_postmeta WHERE post_id = $post_id");
if (count($post_meta_infos)!=0){
$sql_query = "INSERT INTO ydo_postmeta (post_id, meta_key, meta_value) ";
foreach ($post_meta_infos as $meta_info) {
$meta_key = $meta_info->meta_key;
if( $meta_key == '_wp_old_slug' ) continue;
$meta_value = addslashes($meta_info->meta_value);
$sql_query_sel[]= "SELECT $new_post_id, '$meta_key', '$meta_value'";
}
$sql_query.= implode(" UNION ALL ", $sql_query_sel);
$wpdb->query($sql_query);
}
return $new_post_id;
}
