The Magic Button integration enables users to simply click a button to complete a trigger in a recipe. It’s like a custom WordPress button that can do almost anything you want it to—no custom code or programming required!
There are a couple of ways to use this button:
- Create a recipe with a single trigger (the Magic Button). Clicking the button immediately runs the recipe’s actions on the user. This enables you to give users a button that can do anything Automator has an action for, or even execute multiple actions (enrolling the user in a course, sending them an email, adding a new role, etc.).
- Create a recipe with multiple triggers (including one or more Magic Buttons). Clicking the button indicates the user has completed one of the recipe’s requirements, and the recipe’s actions run when the user has completed all triggers. This enables you to create triggers for behaviors that Automator doesn’t support natively, by allowing users to self-complete a trigger in a multi-trigger recipe.
Using the Magic Button
Generating a Magic Button is simple. From your WordPress Admin Dashboard, navigate to Automator > Add new recipe. Select your recipe type, either Logged-in users or Everyone. You will then find the Magic Button integration in the Trigger panel of the recipe editor.
