Help…does anyone know why it’s wilted? CA is really hot t...

It’s probably getting too much sun. The heat is probably contributing to the wilting leaves. I would keep it in the shade for now since it’s so hot out. Let me know if you have any other questions.
@Succulent_Soul thank you! I moved it over to a shady spot 🤞
Hi Jannie, First check to see how many hours of daylight your plant needs. I may also suggest checking the soil Ph. You could buy pH soil testers in any home garden center. If it gets worse, you may want to take it out of that pot. Check the roots. If they are too wet, gently dry them and repot it in fresh soil. Check to see if the plant has rooted often a plant will droop if it is not rooted. Calcium, eggshells, and cinnamon help a plant root. I hope this helps. Good luck. 
@Malagueña thank you! I definitely get a tester. I just repotted on Tuesday so I’m wondering if it’s the root.
@SolidTozzia65 , you can find your plants ideal ph on the internet. 👍
@SolidTozzia65 I agree, even though I live on the opposite coast, I live 8 miles from the ocean and here it can be for example 78° and full sun and I have a laser thermometer that doesn’t lie you can go out in the driveway and look and it is 110 on the driveway 120 on the brick patio and 130 on the wooden porch and it’s only 78° outside temperature wise but in direct sun it is scorching now that doesn’t necessarily mean leaf temperature if the wind‘s blowing and such, but you understand
