    Hi Benny!

    I’m guessing you’re using Advanced Forms Pro? If so you can use the Pro support channel for quicker responses: https://hookturn.io/contact/

    Setting the default post status is quite easy to do! Try this code:

    
function create_post_as_draft() {
    // Set post status as draft
    $post_data['post_status'] = 'draft';

    return $post_data;
}
add_filter( 'af/form/editing/post_data/key=FORM_KEY', 'create_post_as_draft');

    Just replace FORM_KEY with form key. Hope this helps 🙂
