Adding Merge Tags to existing Triggers
Sometimes it's needed to add your own Merge Tag to already defined Trigger. In example you can add a custom meta Merge Tag to default Post Published
Trigger.
To do this simply hook into the action and add your Merge Tag:
// Hook just after the Trigger is registered.
add_action( 'notification/trigger/registered', function( $trigger ) {
// Check if registered Trigger is the one you need.
if ( 'wordpress/post/updated' !== $trigger->get_slug() ) {
return;
}
// Pay attention to the Tag type you are defining.
// If you want to output an HTML, use HtmlTag instead.
$trigger->add_merge_tag( new BracketSpace\Notification\Defaults\MergeTag\StringTag( [
'slug' => 'new_merge_tag',
'name' => __( 'New Merge Tag', 'textdomain' ),
'resolver' => function( $trigger ) {
return get_post_meta( $trigger->post->ID, '_my_meta_key', true );
},
] ) );
} );
Targeting all Post Type Triggers
You can target all the Post Type Triggers like this:
add_action( 'notification/trigger/registered', function( $trigger ) {
if ( ! preg_match( '/wordpress\/(.*)\/(updated|trashed|published|drafted|added|pending)/', $trigger->get_slug() )
return;
}
// Add your Tag.
} );
Global Merge Tags
The Notification plugin also supports global Merge Tags which are added to all Triggers. You can use this nifty function to create one:
notification_add_global_merge_tag( new BracketSpace\Notification\Defaults\MergeTag\StringTag( [
'slug' => 'option_value',
'name' => __( 'Site title', 'textdomain' ),
'resolver' => function( $trigger ) {
return get_option( 'your_option_name', 'Default' );
},
] ) );
Before using any property of the Trigger make sure it's avaible. Global Merge Tags are intended to be loosly connected with any Trigger.
