Changing status to draft

[palmiak]

Hi @nfmohit

While working on a similar plugin, but for Buddy.works integration I was trying to tackle the problem related to auto-deployment and while looking at your code I saw one bug.

if ( 'auto-draft' == get_post_status( $post_id ) || 'draft' == get_post_status( $post_id ) || wp_is_post_revision( $post_id ) ) {
    return;
}

So if we will unpublish the post/page it won't run and I think it should as unpublishing changes the content of the page.

I used a bit different approach. First of all I used transition_post_status action and then I went for something like this:

function check_post_status( $new_status, $old_status, $post ) {
  if ( 'auto-draft' === $post->post_status || wp_is_post_revision( $post->ID ) ) {
	  return false;
  }
  
  // publishing or updating something
  if ( 'publish' === $new_status ) {
	  return true;
  }
  
  // unpublishing
  if ( 'publish' !== $new_status && 'publish' === $old_status ) {
	  return true;
  }
  
  return false;
  
}

Of course your functionality is a bit different, but I hope you get the point.
