So I am trying to the change the URL for the post being updated and I want the current post ID to be a part of it but $articleData[‘ID’] does not return anything.

The following is my code –

function my_pmxi_article_data( $articleData, $import, $post_to_update, $current_xml_node ) {
global $post;
$listingid = $articleData[‘ID’];
$articleData[‘post_name’] = $articleData[‘post_title’].$listingid;
return $articleData;
}
add_filter(‘pmxi_article_data’, ‘my_pmxi_article_data’, 10, 4);

Hi @batcoderstech

The post ID isn’t available when the post is being created, so maybe that’s why it’s empty. I would suggest using the pmxi_saved_post hook instead: https://www.wpallimport.com/documentation/advanced/action-reference/#pmxi_saved_post.

Example:
```
add_action( 'pmxi_saved_post', 'my_change_slug', 10, 3 );
function my_change_slug( $id, $xml, $is_update ) {
	if ( $post = get_post( $id ) ) {
		$post->post_name = sanitize_title( $post->post_title . $id );
		wp_update_post( $post );
	}
}
```
