autopost not working automatically

ok

for some reason the the snap gets triggered before the custom field is updated and hence doesn’t post the custom field to the social media e.g

function update_customfields($post_id)
{
$status = get_field(‘status’,$post_id);
update_post_meta($post_id,’social’,$status);
}

add_action(‘save_post’,’update_customfields’);

in snap i have the output set as %TITLE is %CF-status% , then the title is printed but status is always empty on the social media. for some reason, the SNAP triggers before the custom field is updated hence its always empty …how to get it to trigger after post’s custom field is updated.

plz not it s

add_action(‘pmxi_saved_post’,’update_customfields’); and not add_action(‘save_post’,’update_customfields’);

SNAP triggers before the custom field is updated even if i use cron setting..it does take it into account and publishes emptydata immediately

is there anyway i can hook it so that it crons on add_action(‘pmxi_saved_post’,’update_customfields’); instead of publish immediately.

plz note ‘pmxi_saved_post’ is a wp all import hook to publish posts via importing xml or csv file.

wp all import does this

1. Activate WordPress save_post hook
2. Attach custom fields to post
3. Activate WP All Import pmxi_saved_post hook

so how do i get SNAP plugin so that it activate on pmxi_saved_post.

SNAP is hooked to transition_post_status event of changing post status from whatever to published. Please update your fields before that event or use delayed autopostings.

i did set it with cron do delay post by 2 mins…but it still doesn’t post thts the problem…though the field is present in the post after publish

i set Use WP Cron to Schedule autoposts
Do not autopost more than one post per network every 3 mins
Randomize posting time ±2 minutes

still the custom field is empty and it doesn’t post anything

THis is not a delayed autoposting.
