Biggest opportunity: Swap “api”, “rest” and “rest api” for “connector”, “notion” and “yearly”. “api” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “connector” sits at #4 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “rest” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “notion” sits at #9 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. “rest api” isn't earning its slot: you're not in the first 24 results for its own search. “yearly” sits at #21 untagged, close enough for a declared tag to move it up. All five slots are taken, so one has to go.

of downloads still active
At least 70K of 548.1K lifetime downloads are still running, above its category: the median Uncategorized plugin keeps 0.6%, across 17,772 plugins.
Downloads count every update, not just first installs, so older and more frequently released plugins read lower. Compare against other Uncategorized plugins, not across the directory. wp.org reports active installs as the bottom of a band, so the real rate is this or higher.
This plugin shipped 1 release in the last 12 months, and every existing install that updated counted as another download. wp.org publishes no split between first installs and updates, so we show the raw rate rather than guess at one.

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… This topic was modified 1 year, 7 months ago by websols.

This plugin does enable you to connect a WordPress website to Make.com But it’s also very buggy, conflicting with other plugins. For example, when the Make.com plugin is enabled, and I try to change the configuration for another plugin, the site crashes. I disable the Make.com plugin, and I am able to then update another plugin’s configuration. And I saw this error in my website’s error log today: [30-Aug-2024 16:31:15 UTC] PHP Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 536870912 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 20480 bytes) in /home/sitename/www/wp-content/plugins/integromat-connector/settings/object-types/class-post-meta.php on line 31 I’d love to see Make.com update this plugin, addressing the issues its got playing nice with other things on a website.
