I’ve set up everything but I have no idea how to tell Zapier to use an image (a new one from whatever new campaign is being sent) to be used as a WordPress featured image (in a new post triggered by MailChimp).

Hi @mediumstudio!

Is this image the first one in the campaign by any chance? That will help a lot.

The reason I ask is that you could try setting it up like this to see if you get what you need:

Trigger: Mailchimp — New Campaign (choose Sent for the Status)

 

Action: Web Parser by Zapier — Parse Webpage (use the long archive URL)

 

Action: WordPress — Upload Media (assuming you can retrieve the lead image URL from the Web Parser)

 

Action: WordPress — Create Post (use the image you just uploaded)

 

Can you give that a shot to see if it works for you?

Hi - that seems to do the trick! Now to try and figure out how to strip it of the styling ; ). I can CSS that.

This is a set of actions that I think would be very valuable. I would think that lots of people are looking to have a post made from their MailChimp eBlasts (campaigns).

Your help is VERY much appreciated. Thank you.
