Problem Solved

This workflow addresses the challenge of manually publishing blog posts, which can be time-consuming and prone to errors. By automating the process, it ensures:

- Timely Publishing: Posts are published according to a predefined schedule, reducing the risk of missed deadlines.
- Error Reduction: Minimizes human errors in content transfer from Google Sheets to WordPress.

- Real-time Logging: Automatically logs the status of each post, providing transparency and accountability.

Workflow Steps

  • Settings Configuration: Users set up their Google Sheets and WordPress credentials in the 'Settings' node.
    2. Scheduling: The workflow is triggered based on a schedule defined in the 'ScheduleTrigger' node, allowing for regular checks for new content to publish.
    3. Data Fetching: The workflow retrieves scheduled posts from Google Sheets using the 'Schedule' node, which pulls data based on the defined schedule.
    4. Configuration Fetching: The 'fetchConfig' node retrieves additional configuration settings from the specified Google Sheet.
    5. Data Preparation: The 'PreparedData' node processes the data, preparing it for publication while replacing placeholders with actual values from the configuration.
    6. Prompt Handling: The workflow checks if a prompt exists for the content to be generated or modified using the 'IfPromptExists' node.
    7. Content Generation: If a prompt exists, the 'Basic LLM Chain' node generates the content using the specified language model.
    8. XML Preparation: The 'PrepareXmlPost' node creates an XML request body for the WordPress API, formatting the title and content appropriately.
    9. Post Creation: The 'CreatePost' node sends the XML request to the WordPress API to create or update the post.
    10. Response Handling: The 'HandleXMLRPCResponse' node processes the response from the API, checking for success or errors.
    11. Logging: The workflow logs the status of each operation in Google Sheets, providing a clear record of actions taken and their outcomes.
