Hello.
I am looking to transform my wordpress slug list into a twitter tag.
I use Zapier's text replacement function, I search for , and replace with #[:space:] but it doesn't work, Zapier gives me a list of words instead.
How to do ?

Hi
Thanks for reaching out! Can you try swapping out the ##:space] with #{Slug} and let us know what you come back with?
Hello.
I just tried and unfortunately it doesn't work.
Maybe my search for the , is not good?
Hey
Are you also able to share a screenshot from the test section of your Wordpress step, which shows the full format/list of slugs so we can understand better how that data is coming across to your Zap (you’ll need to be in edit mode for this)?
Let us know - definitely want to get to a solution for you!
Hello and thank you for taking the time.
Yes I want to start from my wordpress list: word1, word2, word3, word4... and transform it this way: #word1 #word2 #word3 #word4…
For the screenshot I hope it's the right one.
It's the "Terms Slug" line that interests me.
Hi
This one isn’t obvious, and actually took me a bit of playing around to solve.
FIRST: what you’re seeing there with your slugs is not a comma-separated list (though it looks like one). They’re line items, and you can tell because they show up like this in your screenshot:
SOLUTION: We can use a pair of Formatter steps to get that set of line items into a series of hashtags.
For the Input field, you’ll map the slugs from WordPress:
Next, use the output from that first Formatter step, like this:
If you look carefully you’ll see that the output of that last Formatter step is missing a # sign before the first term. Easy fix. Type that first one, then map the field:
Hope that helps! If you have any questions, please let us know :)
So a huge thank you, I would never have found this path.
Thank you very much for the time taken, this is exactly what I needed, now I will try to understand how it works to try to manage for another format.
Thank you @nicksimard
You’re welcome,
