Post status not following form settings

However when I edit the post from the Dashboard, it changes the post status to draft correctly.

I am not sure whats going on, never faced any problem like this. Is your every form behaving like this?

I’ll test on a newly-made form and see if it occurs still.

I’ve made a new form and the post still isn’t getting saved as “draft”…it’s still published on creation.

I’ve only got two forms. The one for creating custom posts “product”, and for registering users. I have subscription packs enabled.

Can I send you login details so you can have a look at my settings/plugins?

Also I have two users. My admin account and a customer account. The post in the backend recognises the author as my admin, even though I’ve created it with my customer account :/

Is your site online ? can you give us a test account ?

reply with private settings .

Thanks.

I just test it and its working perfectly !

After submit the product if you go to SHOP , you can’t see your product(s) there. Cause, they haven’t approved.

Go to admin area -> Products-> post name

on right hand side you will see your Items status like bellow –

Thanks

If only this was true 🙂

That’s just a custom field, it actually represents nothing other than emailing the client depending on the status.

It’s here that is the issue:

The status, which is set in the form settings, should be Draft.

When you edit this same product from the front-end, it does change the status. Only when you create does it not set it to Draft :/

Also the only reason you are the author of the product is because you’re an Administrator account. This makes me think that I might need to add more capabilities to the Customer role to enable them to be an author in the first place.

So yeah, my initial problem still exists 🙁 Thank you for at least try though 🙂

The problem is in the plugin and it conflicts with the subscription setting. If you enable subscription and you have balance, it’ll publish your post automatically.

As a quick solve, I would suggest you to change `/class/subscription.php` line:251, where it says `’post_status’ => ‘publish’` change it to `’post_status’ => ‘draft’`. I’ll try to fix this bug.

Hi Tareq! Thanks for sorting that out for me 🙂 The status get’s changed the “pending” now, instead of “draft” but I can work with that. Any status that removes posts visually from the front-end will do 🙂

When I created a post with an Administrator account, the post status remained as published.
When I created a post with a Customer/Subscriber account, the post status was changed to “Pending”.

With your latest update (2.1.4) was this fixed or do I have to re-apply the hotfix to the subscription.php file?

Sorry, it’s not been fixed yet.

Hrm I’ve just tested this again but and it doesn’t seem to be honouring my form setting to save the new post as ‘draft’, ‘pending’ or anything else for that matter (other than published).

Is there somewhere else I can change code to make sure it stays as draft/pending?

I’ll provide links and log in details in a private reply.
