Sync Mautic vs Send Images to RSS

Send Images to RSS bridges the gap between large websites and small emails, by replacing images in your feed with smaller, email friendly images, and attempting to add markup which email clients can handle. Between larger monitors, retina screens, and better image optimization, the images we serve up on our websites are larger than they’ve ever been. RSS to email services such as MailChimp, however, are constrained to what email clients can display, which is small, small, small. And although it’s possible to try to style images with a max-width in your emails, not all clients will honor it (I’m looking at you, Outlook). Send Images to RSS makes it easy to create beautiful, email friendly RSS campaigns, with minimal setup required, regardless of your feed setup. Full Text RSS Feeds If your site’s RSS feed is set to Full Text, this plugin makes sure your emails look more like your website: Replace overly large images with email friendly size images. Convert galleries from thumbnails to full width images. Add email friendly styling/alignment to your images. Summary Text Feeds If you’ve used Summaries as your RSS feed settings, this plugin has not been for you. Until now. As of 3.0.0, Send Images to RSS brings the awesome to you, too. Here’s the magic for your Summary feed: Add the post’s featured image to your excerpt. Choose the size and alignment. If no featured image is set, the plugin will use the first image uploaded to the post. Set a custom length for your RSS summary/excerpt. Pick the number of words you want your summary to have, and the plugin will aim for that, but with the added bonus of making sure the final sentence is complete. If you add a manual excerpt to your post, because you like to have full control, the plugin will properly use that instead. Automatically add a custom “read more” link to the end of every post summary, to keep your feed pointed back to your site. Known (non)Issues This plugin should work with any theme. Some themes and plugins do modify the feed for their own purposes. Where possible, I’ve tried to account for them: For summary feeds, the Yoast SEO RSS link is removed (the full text feed and front end output are not changed). For summary feeds, the excerpt filter added by the Woo Canvas theme is removed (the full text feed and front end output are not changed). For summary feeds, this plugin will replace the image settings for Display Featured Image for Genesis for versions 2.3.0 and later (because this plugin is smarter). If you’re using Display Featured Image for Genesis 2.2.2 or lower, this plugin will concede graciously. But you should update, please. For full text feeds, this plugin will not duplicate featured images if they are being added by Display Featured Image for Genesis–you will want to disable that feature in Display Featured Image for Genesis. NOTE: it is up to you to check that your feed output is still working, especially in your email system of choice, once it’s installed. I’ve attempted to set it up to handle XHTML or HTML5, and function even if your feed is wonky, but please double check, and let me know if you have issues, and if so, what specifically they are. Props Special thanks to Gretchen Louise for her summary feed contributions. Spanish translation offered by Web Hosting Hub

Mautic is an excellent Open Source Email and SMS marketing tool, but it lacks the ability to see what your contacts have purchased or if they came from your website. Sync Mautic works with WordPress to tag those subscribed via your website and also with WooCommerce so that when a customer completes an order and they are subscribed as a contact, it will automatically tag them with the products, categories, and brands they have purchased. Our plugin also provides an endpoint you can hook into for OptinMonster to collect leads, but if you don’t use OptinMonster we provided a [mautic_form] shortcode to use which will inject a form that links to your Mautic instance. Features: Supports WordPress Supports WooCommerce Supports tracking eCommerce revenue using our eCommerce Connector for Mautic [NEW] Optional order line items (product ID, name, quantity, category) for eCommerce Connector 1.3.0 [NEW] Optional signed webhook order tracking as an alternative to page hits [NEW] Optional clickthrough collection for signed webhook so orders can be attributed to the Mautic email that was clicked Supports OptinMonster using /wp-json/sync-mautic/v1/optinmonster Supports adding leads using /wp-json/sync-mautic/v1/add-lead Adds [mautic_form] shortcode to give an email signup. You can use the tag attribute to add tags in Mautic [mautic_form tag=”Tag 1, Tag 2″] Adds a checkbox to WooCommerce checkout to subscribe to newsletter Tag users of your website in Mautic Tag customers of your store in Mautic Tag subscribed contacts with products they purchase Tag subscribed contacts with categories they have purchased from Tag subscribed contacts with brands they have purchased from Upgrade Take a backup of your WordPress database and files before you upgrade. A backup lets you restore WordPress if something goes wrong. Update Sync Mautic from the WordPress plugins screen, or replace the plugin files in /wp-content/plugins/sync-mautic/. Open Settings > Sync Mautic after the upgrade and confirm your tracking settings. In Mautic, open Ecommerce Connector → Validation and set Allowed order sources to WooCommerce. Sync Mautic sends WooCommerce as the order source. GDPR and privacy This plugin may send contact, order, and revenue data to Mautic. That data may be personal data under the GDPR and similar privacy laws. Cookies are not the threshold. The signed webhook is server-to-server and does not set cookies, but it still processes personal data. Page-hit tracking uses WP Mautic visitor identification, which typically involves cookies. Page hits also send billing email on the mtc.js pageview so the order can be linked to an existing Mautic contact. Page hits do not set an additional cookie. Optional clickthrough collection stores a first-party cookie so signed webhook orders can be attributed to a Mautic email. Before you enable tracking, update your privacy and cookie policies along with cookie acceptance banners so they disclose that order, purchase, and revenue information may be sent to and stored in Mautic for marketing analytics, email attribution, segmentation, and contact profiling. Do not rely on this plugin’s settings alone; your public-facing privacy policy (and any other required notices) must reflect this processing. You are also responsible for: Having a lawful basis for processing (for example consent or legitimate interests, as applicable in your jurisdiction) Obtaining consent where required before enabling order tracking, clickthrough collection, or checkout opt-in Handling data subject requests (access, erasure, and related rights) for data stored in WordPress and in Mautic Configuring retention and security in line with your policies and legal obligations Data this plugin may send or store When order tracking is enabled, this plugin may send to Mautic (via Ecommerce Connector): Order identifiers, totals, currency, source, and order date Line items (product/item ID, name, quantity, category), when enabled Billing email on page-hit (mtc.js) pageviews and signed webhook requests, used only to link an existing Mautic contact (contacts are not created from page hits or the webhook) Optional clickthrough token (ct) for email attribution, when Collect clickthrough is enabled Links between orders and contacts, and optional attribution to Mautic emails Mautic may then store and display contact commerce fields, timeline entries, and report data derived from those orders. This plugin may also store in WordPress: Cached Mautic lead IDs on WordPress user profiles when order tagging is enabled A first-party clickthrough cookie and matching order meta when Collect clickthrough is enabled Checkout newsletter signup meta when checkout opt-in is used Order tagging and checkout opt-in may create or update Mautic contacts and tags. Past order tagging does not send historical orders to Ecommerce Connector. Access and erasure Contact export of ecommerce order history (order ID, totals, currency, source, location, date, attributed email, and line items) is handled in Mautic by Ecommerce Connector, so you can fulfill access requests there. Deleting a Mautic contact also deletes that contact’s ecommerce orders and line items in Mautic. Commerce fields on the contact are removed with the contact. Email revenue totals for those orders will drop after deletion. Merging Mautic contacts moves ecommerce orders to the remaining contact. Deleting a WordPress user does not automatically delete the matching Mautic contact or that contact’s ecommerce orders.
