<p>This plugin creates an additional post status ‘restricted’. This status functions similarly to setting a post, page, or cpt to private. However with this plugin you can specify which roles have access to restricted posts</p>
<p>This is required because natively WordPress follows a publishing/editorial paradigm and therefore the ‘read_private_posts’ capability is only granted to admins and editors.</p>

Zapier for WordPress


I see a lot of bad reviews, I'm assuming it's likely from people who aren't super familiar with how API's work and how to troubleshoot the failing connections.



Documentation for this plugin could certainly be improved, but it does work well.


Has always worked great for me

Zapier saves you time on tedious tasks by moving info between WordPress and your other favorite apps, so you can focus on your most important work.
