AutomatorWP integration #3909

Open harryriegel opened 3 years ago

harryriegel commented 3 years ago

Besides web-based-solutions like Zapier, AutomatorWP is our favourite Automation plugin for Wordpress. (More native wp-hooks than Zapier). As JetFormBuilder from Croco is our preferred formbuilder, it would be an elevation in functionality, if it gets compatible with AutomatorWP.

That´s it... nothing more to write, as the idea is self-explainable. Disregarding the comparison of funtionality, other formbuilders like Gravity, Forminator etc. are already availbale. Hope to get some of your thoughts.

Best regards and stay healthy!

Hi, i also have currently a case where I would need functionality to work with AutomatorWP + AutomateWOO and Crocoblock Plugins.

My case: My registered clients are 95% business users (companies). They will be billed monthly by a defined price scale, means also the amount can change monthly.
To know which amount has to be billed I need to check automatically the current number of active custom posts per customer and day which I store in a database table.

At each 1. Day of a new month the system has to calculate the active posts average of past month and store this value in a database table per customer id too.

AutomatorWP (Daily active custom post type) Trigger= (Time = daily at 02.00am)

Rule 1 = User Status = Active Rule 2 = User Role xxx

Action = (Croco = Run Query (search active custom post type xxx by user id) Action = (Croco = Run Query (calculate the sum of all active posts) Action = Update User custom field (meta box field) with calculated value Action = Write Value in database

AutomatorWP (monthly average calculation of active post type) Trigger= (Time = monthly 1.day at 02.00am)

Rule 1 = User Status = Active Rule 2 = User Role xxx

Action = (Croco = Run Query (calculate sum of daily post value of last month and divide with number of month days)Action = Action = Update User custom field (meta box field) with calculated value Action = Write Value in database

AutomateWOO (update Subscription to bill the right amount per month) Trigger = (Time = monthly 2. Day 02.00am)

Rule 1 = User Status = Active Rule 2 = User Role xxx Rule 3 = Custom meta field is not empty

Action = Update Subscription quantity Action = Send email with a list where all days shown with post values + monthly average which was caluclated

This option to use the results of Croco Query builder in combination with AutomatorWP + AutomateWOO would be a huge game changer for me...

For more informations on this above case feedback me directly.
