   While I am in a custom post admin 'add post' page, I generate a title from the check taxonomies for that post. Then I replace the post_title with the generated title, and I want to insert that title in the beginning of the post content as well.

   I got it to work, except that it doesn't insert it in the post content.

   I used the same function for replacing the title and the content.

   The below code works in that the title of the post is replaced, but the content is not.

   I thought the jQuery would do it, but maybe the content works differently, or I used the wrong process.

   Can someone help me?

   Here is the HTML:

   //Add CARS meta boxes
   
       add_action( 'add_meta_boxes' , 'car_meta_boxes' );
       function car_meta_boxes() {
           add_meta_box(
               'car_info',
               __( 'Car Info'),
               'car_info_div',
               'cars'
           );
       }
       function car_info_div( $post ) {
         // Use nonce for verification
            wp_nonce_field( plugin_basename( __FILE__ ), 'car_noncename' );
   
       //CARS Data Entry Fields
   ?>
       <div>
           <label for="car_calc_name"><?php _e("Car Name");?></label>
           <input type="text" name="car_calc_name" value="<?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'car_calc_name', true);?>" /><br>
           <label for="car_calc_color"><?php _e("Car Color");?></label>
           <input type="text" name="car_calc_color" value="<?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'car_calc_color', true);?>" /><br>
           <label for="car_calc_series"><?php _e("Car Series");?></label>
           <input type="text" name="car_calc_series" value="<?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'car_calc_series', true);?>" /><br>
           <label for="car_calc_descript"><?php _e("Car Discription");?></label>
           <input type="text" name="car_calc_descript" value="<?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, 'car_calc_descript', true);?>" /><br>
           <input type="button" value="Create" id="create" />
           <input type="button" value="Replace" id="replace" />
       </div>
   
       <script type="text/javascript">

   Then the PHP:

   // Cars REPLACE Button
   
   jQuery('#replace').click(function(){
       //get the parts of the title
           var cname = jQuery('input[name="car_calc_name"]').val();
           var ccolor = jQuery('input[name="car_calc_color"]').val();
           var cseries = jQuery('input[name="car_calc_series"]').val();
           var cdescript = jQuery('input[name="car_calc_descript"]').val();
   
   //Update title
       var title = cname + ' - ' + ccolor + ' - ' + cseries + ' - ' + cdescript;
       jQuery('input[name="post_title"]').focus().val(title);
       jQuery('input[name="post_content"]').focus().val(title);
       });
       //-->
