How to make APT work with "User submitted posts"?

    Dear Devtard,

    I just started looking into WordPress, so please excuse my noobie questions!

    I want to use APT to automatically tag posts coming from the plugin “User submitted posts”. But I noticed that user-submitted posts are not automatically tagged when I automatically publish them. It only works when I moderate and publish them manually.

    In other threads I saw that it depends on the posting method if APT is triggered, and that APT should be able to handle the “wp_insert_post” method, right? Now this is exactly the method I found in “User submitted posts”, as seen in this snippet:

    // submit post
	$postData = usp_prepare_post($title, $content, $author_id, $author, $ip);

	do_action('usp_insert_before', $postData);
	$newPost['id'] = wp_insert_post($postData);
	do_action('usp_insert_after', $newPost);

    Any ideas what could be wrong?

    Hello. What happens when you delete/comment out the following code which is just below the snippet you posted?

    wp_set_post_tags($post_id, $tags);
wp_set_post_categories($post_id, array($category));

    It may be the case that the post is processed by APT first when the “wp_insert_post” hook is fired, but then the added terms are overwitten by these functions.

    Excellent, that did the trick! The only downside is that user defined tags are now not saved anymore, but I can live with that.

    Thanks a lot!
