Instant sharing not working properly on existing posts

[purplecodes]

Description

Under the General Settings of Revive Old Posts Dashboard, there is an option Enable Instant Sharing Feature (Post on Publish) where the post should automatically be shared to active social media accounts that have been added to the Dashboard after clicking the Publish or Update button.

Given the settings (as seen on the screenshot), when a new post has created the socials under the Revive Old Posts setting is automatically selected.

But the same behavior is not reflected

in existing posts.

Step-by-step reproduction instructions

1. Enable the settings as seen on the screenshot.
2. Create a new post and open an existing post and compare the difference.

Hey @purplecodes,

After reviewing the source code, I found the filter that enables the instant sharing option for the edit post screen as well.

Add below code snippet in theme functions.php

function top_load_post_callback() {
    add_filter( 'rop_is_edit_post_screen', '__return_false' );
}
add_action( 'load-post.php', 'top_load_post_callback' );

Thanks

@girishpanchal30 I checked and this issue was not happening in the ROP 9.0.2 version and indeed is a regression. Can we fix it in the plugin directly instead of providing custom code?

@irinelenache I Fixed this issue directly in the plugin, please check with the attached PR https://github.com/Codeinwp/tweet-old-post/pull/863

@girishpanchal30 Sorry to bother, but can we have the process to build the zip file in the PR as we have in other plugins? I was making the changes myself in the code before, but now there are more changes and it's harder to follow

@irinelenache Can you please download this file and replace it with your plugin?

Checked now and it works fine, thank you 👍
