I’ve got a problem. I don’t want duplicate posts. Any way to check if a post already exists and if it does just set the new one to draft? I am using IFTTT to update my blog and sometimes it posts multiple times.
Don’t post or draft if post already exists
I have no idea what IFTTT is but you can use the
save_postaction hook to do a check for duplicate posts. This hook runs whenever a post is created or updated you would then be able to right your own code to check against existing posts.http://codex.wordpress.org/Plugin_API/Action_Reference/save_post
