Description
Every plugin and even the wordpress.com app is updating the same post activity twice while publishing and editing. My plugin ARROWDAN Notifier is made to send notification on post publish and edit. It was working fine with previous version of wordpress but now its updating twice and sending 2 notification for the same thing. I thought it was bug with my plugin only, but later i tested with other plugin also and found same issue. And not only plugin is affected but also wordpress app is showing publish and edit activity twice in website activity log.
Due to this bug, many plugin is affected.
Test Detail
Used latest version 5.5.1
Tested in more than 4 website
Wordpress app in android phone
Reason
In my plugin Save_Post hook is called twice itself by the system. Because my manual send notification is working fine.
Hi there, welcome to WordPress Trac! Thanks for the report.
As previously noted in comment:5:ticket:19074,
save_post
fires twice for any post type that supports revisions:When using the
save_post
hook, you should check the post type of the post object before doing anything. Some examples might be helpful: https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/hooks/save_post/#user-contributed-notesAlternatively, you can use the save_post_{$post->post_type} hook that only fires for specific post types.
This works as intended, I don't see a bug here.
