I’m looking to use various multi-step forms to create different listings. From searching this forum, it doesn’t look like this is possible to integrate so I was wondering if you can explain how the tables are saved for a listing?
I’m looking to insert the listing manually into the posts table. I saw that there were 3 steps the website takes to save the listing (Draft, Auto-Draft, and Publish). Are you able to share this process with details so that I can re-create it?
I highly recommend using the existing listing form because it already has multiple steps, some extensions rely on it and also it’s connected to corresponding settings in HivePress/Settings. I can provide some guidance on how to add new steps to this form, let me know if this works for you.
If you want to recreate it, it’s still possible on WordPress level: listing is a custom “hp_listing” post type with attributes (meta fields with “hp_” prefix, or taxonomy terms with “hp_listing_” prefix), so it’s possible to fill all the details directly, but I recommend using HivePress API instead for future compatibility, if we change the underlying WordPress implementation.

Yes, please let me know how to implement steps to the form.
If a listing is created at the WordPress level, will the Search Alert that are set from the extension still be emailed out?
