New post status for custom post type

I have a custom post type recipes. I am using a cron script to automatically aggregate news into the database.

It is currently being imported and saved as 'Pending Review'. Is it possible to create another post status called Aggregated which will list all of the aggregated news to be published?

I tried using the register_post_status function, however this didn't seem to work:

function custom_post_status(){
    register_post_status( 'aggregated', array(
        'label'                     = _x( 'Aggregated', 'recipes' ),
        'public'                    = false,
        'exclude_from_search'       = true,
        'show_in_admin_all_list'    = true,
        'show_in_admin_status_list' = true,
        'label_count'               = _n_noop( 'Aggregated span class="count"(%s)/span', 'Aggregated span class="count"(%s)/span' ),
    ) );
}
add_action( 'init', 'custom_post_status' );

Thanks for help with this.

There is a great Step by Step description on how to do that here https://www.jclabs.co.uk/create-custom-post-status-in-wordpress-using-register_post_status/

To add your custom post status to the drop-down menue, just add the following to your themes function script:

add_action('admin_footer-post.php', 'jc_append_post_status_list');
function jc_append_post_status_list(){
 global $post;
 $complete = '';
 $label = '';
 if($post->post_type == 'recipes'){
      if($post->post_status == 'aggregated'){
           $complete = ' selected=\"selected\"';
           $label = '<span id=\"post-status-display\"> Aggregated</span>';
      }
      echo '
      <script>
      jQuery(document).ready(function($){
           $("select#post_status").append("<option value=\"aggregated\" '.$complete.'>Aggregated</option>");
           $(".misc-pub-section label").append("'.$label.'");
      });
      </script>
      ';
  }
}

With this you have your custom post status up and running in 5 min, saved me a bunch of time!

Register a post status "aggregated" for custom post type "recipes" :

register_post_status( 'aggregated', array(
                    'label'                     => _x( 'Aggregated ', 'post status label', 'plugin-domain' ),
                    'public'                    => true,
                    'label_count'               => _n_noop( 'Aggregated s <span class="count">(%s)</span>', 'Aggregated s <span class="count">(%s)</span>', 'plugin-domain' ),
                    'post_type'                 => array( 'recipes' ), // Define one or more post types the status can be applied to.
                    'show_in_admin_all_list'    => true,
                    'show_in_admin_status_list' => true,
                    'show_in_metabox_dropdown'  => true,
                    'show_in_inline_dropdown'   => true,
                    'dashicon'                  => 'dashicons-businessman',
                ) );

In the "recipes" custom post edit screen's publish metabox, adding the custom post status in the dropdown and change the "Save Draft" button label if the selected post status is "aggregated" :

add_action('admin_footer-post.php',function(){

    global $post;
    $complete = '';
    $label = '';

    if($post->post_type == 'recipes') {

        if ( $post->post_status == 'aggregated' ) {
            $complete = ' selected=\"selected\"';
            $label    = 'Aggregated';
        }

        $script = <<<SD

 
       jQuery(document).ready(function($){
           $("select#post_status").append("<option value=\"aggregated\" '.$complete.'>Aggregated</option>");
           
           if( "{$post->post_status}" == "aggregated" ){
                $("span#post-status-display").html("$label");
                $("input#save-post").val("Save Aggregated");
           }
           var jSelect = $("select#post_status");
                
           $("a.save-post-status").on("click", function(){
                
                if( jSelect.val() == "aggregated" ){
                    
                    $("input#save-post").val("Save Aggregated");
                }
           });
      });
     

SD;

        echo '<script type="text/javascript">' . $script . '</script>';
    }

});

Add the custom post status in the quick edit screen of the custom post admin grid :

add_action('admin_footer-edit.php',function() {
    global $post;
    if( $post->post_status == 'recipes' ) {
        echo "<script>
    jQuery(document).ready( function() {
        jQuery( 'select[name=\"_status\"]' ).append( '<option value=\"aggregated\">Aggregated</option>' );
    });
    </script>";
    }
});

Display the custom post status total in the custom post admin grid :

add_filter( 'display_post_states', function( $statuses ) {
    global $post;

    if( $post->post_type == 'recipes') {
        if ( get_query_var( 'post_status' ) != 'aggregated' ) { // not for pages with all posts of this status
            if ( $post->post_status == 'aggregated' ) {
                return array( 'Aggregated' );
            }
        }
    }
    return $statuses;
});

Your code should be sound, and should add the desired status to the $wp_post_statuses global array.

If you are expecting it to show up in the admin drop-down, however, this is an ongoing issue: https://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/12706
