    I have a form that I have set up to create a new posy for a post type I have set up - the [mb_frontend_form id='garden-form' post_fields='title' post_type='Garden' submit_button='Save Your Form']

    The post form does not create a post type -

    The post type was called "garden" - but the client wanted it changed to green care site which I did - I tried altering the shortcode to ad in the new post type - not sure if this was needed - but it st=ill doesn't ad a new post under the post type

    [mb_frontend_form id='garden-form' post_fields='title' post_type='green-care-site' redirect='http://sfgqualitymark.org.uk/user-dashboard/' submit_button='Save Your Form']

    I'm really not sure what to do - I can gicve you backend access if it helps

    kind regards

    Paul

    Hi Paul,

    Can you please deactivate all plugins except Meta Box, MB extensions and switch to the standard theme of WordPress (Twenty TwentyOne) then submit a new post from frontend? Some screenshots would be appreciated.

    I think I have solved it 0 after the client changed the post type name the form still had the old post type in the shortcode - it seems to work now

    they have had a few people fill the form in and save it - but it obviuosly saved as the old post type - how can I access this - is there a way to find it in the database

    Hi,

    You can access the database, find them in the table wp_posts and check the column post_type. Then you can change the post type slug with the new one.

    Or create a CPT with the old slug, then use this plugin to change post type https://wordpress.org/plugins/post-type-switcher/
