It’s great to see that someone has finally tackled this feature for WordPress, and my testing thus far suggests that they’ve done a nice job of it. It’s a big win for users to have their developers be able to do this sort of automation without writing custom PHP that someone is obliged to support forever. A rules scripting system like this provides a level of abstraction that, in addition to simplifying the implementation of many features, can considerably reduce the ongoing support burden associated with them.<\/p>\n
For this system to achieve its potential, other plugin authors will need to step up and provide integration support for their events and data. I hope that they will. The API provided to permit this looks pretty clear and complete.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"template":"","class_list":["post-10831747","topic","type-topic","status-publish","hentry"],"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/10831747","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/topic"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/topic\/10831747\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wordpress.org\/support\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=10831747"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
