Make is a visual platform that lets you design, build, and automate anything – from simple tasks to complex workflows – in minutes. With Make, you can send information between WordPress and thousands of apps to drive traffic and improve sales potential. It’s fast and easy to use, visually intuitive and requires zero coding expertise.
Here are some of the ways to use WordPress with Make:
I’m using it on a website and it fails to create a new post. On other websites it works but in this specific case it just doesn’t and no error message turns up in the log.txt. This has been the case for multiple updates of the plugin. No error in Make (just no Post ID in the Output Bundle in Make) and no error in the Make Connector log.
v1.6.0 came with some bugs but devs were very fast and responsive to solve the issue and push a new update.
Overall, a great plugin.
After the update, texts posted on WordPress are stripped of formatting and appear as a plain wall of text.
I tried everything on this, even as far as to attempt to fix the code myself. I asked my PHP Bot to look at the code and it “barfed”. And before you ask, I’ve been doing PHP since V2 (maybe earlier). I was having trouble with the code, so I asked for assistance. There are some questionable things happening in the code. Stay clear!!
This plugin uses it’s own alternative authentication method for the WP-JSON API instead of the native application passwords provided by core WP or more secure alternatives explained in the WordPress developer docs.
After examining the code a bit further to find out why the authentication always returned a 401 in our setup, we’ve discovered it tries to login and run it’s code as the first (random) administrator account it can find in the database.
Just terrible…
