Save and Activate the Scenario
After configuring Mailgun, WordPress.com, and any additional nodes, don’t forget to save the scenario and click "Deploy." Activating the scenario ensures it will run automatically whenever the trigger node receives input or a condition is met. By default, all newly created scenarios are deactivated.
Test the Scenario
Run the scenario by clicking “Run once” and triggering an event to check if the Mailgun and WordPress.com integration works as expected. Depending on your setup, data should flow between Mailgun and WordPress.com (or vice versa). Easily troubleshoot the scenario by reviewing the execution history to identify and fix any issues.
Most powerful ways to connect Mailgun and WordPress.com
Mailgun + Google Sheets + WordPress.com: When a new bounce event occurs in Mailgun, the details are logged to a Google Sheet for analysis. If the email address is associated with a WordPress.com user, their user role might be updated or a note added to their profile, though direct WordPress.com user management isn't available in the actions, so this part will need custom code or won't be possible.
WordPress.com + Mailgun + Slack: When a new post is published on a WordPress.com site, a promotional email is sent via Mailgun to a mailing list. A notification is also sent to a designated Slack channel informing the team of the new post.
