Dealing with a frustrating glitch when using the Create a Post option to create a WordPress post (not an EE custom post).
When we have a new event open for registration we set the “Add/Update post for this event?” option to Yes. Everything works fine.
However, when we duplicate an event, the new event retains a link to the WordPress post created by the original event. When we edit and update the duplicated event, it overwrites the post created by the original event.
Even if we set the “Add/Update post for this event?” option to “No,” saving the duplicated event sets the default back to “Yes” (although it doesn’t update the original event’s post.
The only fix I’ve found is to edit the database record to remove the references to the WordPress post.
Can you fix this by having the duplicate event feature delete the post info stored in the record?
I am sorry for the trouble you are having. This is a known issue that our developers are working on to get resolved. I currently do not have an ETA on the fix.
