Hi I need some help with custom taxonomy and wp_insert_post.
I have a Custom Post Type "Locations" and the custom taxonomy called "poicategory".
My problem is when I insert the post with wp_insert_post the post taxonomy is not created correctly. If I´m watching in Backend post is created but no category is connected to post. When I go in post edit and watch the categories are set to the post (see images).
First image: the created post in Backend -> No categories set -> edit the created post and you see in POI Kategorien 3 selected Categories
Second image: POI Category overview in Backend -> No post in Category.
My first try was this code snipped:
$ids = array (42,43,44);
$defaults = array(
'post_type' => 'locations',
'post_title' => $postTitle,
'post_status' => 'draft',
'comment_status' => 'closed',
'tax_input' => array(
'poicategory' => $ids
),
'post_author' => 1,
'meta_input' => $post_meta,
);
$mh_post_id = wp_insert_post($defaults, true);
if ($mh_post_id != 0 && $mh_post_id != false) {
set_post_thumbnail($mh_post_id, $_SESSION['mediaDataID'][0]);
add_post_meta($mh_post_id, '_yoast_wpseo_primary_poicategory', $parentCat);
destroySession();
}
with this explaned result. So I searched a bit around and found something. So I switch my code to this :
$ids = array (42,43,44);
$defaults = array(
'post_type' => 'locations',
'post_title' => $postTitle,
'post_status' => 'draft',
'comment_status' => 'closed',
'post_author' => 1,
'meta_input' => $post_meta,
);
$mh_post_id = wp_insert_post($defaults, true);
if ($mh_post_id != 0 && $mh_post_id != false) {
set_post_thumbnail($mh_post_id, $_SESSION['mediaDataID'][0]);
add_post_meta($mh_post_id, '_yoast_wpseo_primary_poicategory', $parentCat);
wp_set_object_terms($mh_post_id, $ids, 'poicategory', false);
destroySession();
}
But the result is the same. And now I have no idear whats wrong. I hope someone can help me :).
