Tixys is a booking plattform for long-distance coaches. This plugin uses the Tixys API to provide an interactive search for travel connections.
This is very handy for companies who have a Tixys shop and want to embed a booking form into their own website. It may also be used by partners and affiliates of such companies.

A plugin to push events to the Ringier Event Bus when articles are created, updated or deleted.
<h3>AUDIENCE</h3>
This plugin is made for Ringier businesses using WordPress and wanting to benefit from Hexagon solutions available via the Ringier Event Bus. It can be implemented by developers and non-developers.
<h3>BENEFITS</h3>
The Hexagon solutions available via the Ringier Event Bus and compatible with this plugin include: 
– The syncing of articles with Sailthru media library, 
– The storage of article events in Ringier Datalake, from which they are retrieved by the Content Distribution Engine (CDE). 
You can also benefit from the Bus tooling such as event logging, event monitoring and alerting.

<h3>HOW IT WORKS</h3>
The plugin automatically triggers events when articles are created, updated and deleted. 
Event names: ArticleCreated, ArticleUpdated and ArticleDeleted.
The events are scheduled to be sent to the Bus within a 1-minute delay. This is to allow WordPress to process the changes and update custom fields in the database, which is done asynchronously. You can view scheduled events by making use of the plugin “Advanced Cron Manager”.
Here is a summary of the events sent to the Bus: 
– If the article is newly created, we send it INSTANTLY – sent as ArticleCreated 
 – But then we schedule it to run again after the normal 1 minute so that all custom data are sent properly – sent as ArticleUpdated 
– For all existing articles that undergo an update, we schedule the event to run after the 1 minute interval
The plugin also creates two mandatory custom fields, available on the article editor page under “Event Bus” widget: 
– The article lifetime (lifetime) 
– The publication reason (publication_reason)
We also expose custom filters to help you adjust these two fields and the payload sent to the BUS endpoint, see below.
<h3>LOGS</h3>
This plugin creates a log file (ringier_bus_plugin_error_log), saved inside the wp-content/ folder: 
The error messages are viewable via the admin UI by clicking on the submenu “LOG”. 
You also have the flexibility to clear the log file via the UI itself.
<h3>CUSTOM FILTERS</h3>
The plugin exposes three custom filters to help you adjust the plugin’s JSON Payload that is sent to the BUS endpoint.
<h3>1. Modifying the Publication Reason</h3>
You can customize the publication reason for an article by using the ringier_bus_get_publication_reason filter. This filter allows you to modify the publication reason before it is sent to the Ringier Event Bus.
Example: 
 <code>php 
function custom_publication_reason(string $publication_reason, int $post_ID): string 
{ 
 // Your custom logic goes here 
 return 'Custom Publication Reason'; 
} 
add_filter('ringier_bus_get_publication_reason', 'custom_publication_reason', 10, 2);</code>
<h3>2. Modifying the Article Lifetime Payload</h3>
You can customize the article lifetime for an article by using the ringier_bus_get_article_lifetime filter. This filter allows you to modify the article lifetime before it is sent to the Ringier Event Bus.
Example: 
 <code>php 
function custom_article_lifetime(string $article_lifetime, int $post_ID): string 
{ 
 // Your custom logic goes here 
 return 'Custom Article Lifetime'; 
} 
add_filter('ringier_bus_get_article_lifetime', 'custom_article_lifetime', 10, 2);</code>
<h3>3. Modifying the Article Payload Data</h3>
You can customize the payload data for an article by using the ringier_bus_build_article_payload filter. This filter allows you to modify the payload data before it is sent to the Ringier Event Bus.
Example: 
 `php 
function custom_build_article_payload(array $payload_array, int $post_ID, WP_Post $post): array 
{ 
 // Add a custom field to the payload for example 
 $payload_array[‘custom_field’] = ‘Custom Value’;
<pre><code>return $payload_array;
</code></pre>
} 
add_filter(‘ringier_bus_build_article_payload’, ‘custom_build_article_payload’, 10, 3); 
 `
<h3>4. Controlling Author Event Dispatch</h3>
You can control whether the Ringier Bus plugin should dispatch Author events for a specific user by using the ringier_bus_should_dispatch_author_event filter. 
This filter allows you to override the default logic to force enablement or disablement based on your own custom logic – when you want full control over which authors get sent to the Event Bus.
Example: 
 `php 
/** 
 * Example: Prevent event dispatch for a specific user ID. 
 */ 
add_filter(‘ringier_bus_should_dispatch_author_event’, function (bool $should_dispatch, int $user_id): bool {
<pre><code>// Example: Always send events for Administrators, ignoring the "Show Profile" checkbox
if (user_can($user_id, 'administrator')) {
 return true;
}

// Example condition: never sync user ID 1234
if ($user_id === 1234) {
 return false;
}

// Otherwise, use the default logic
return $should_dispatch;
</code></pre>
}, 10, 2); 
 `
This filter gives you full flexibility to: 
– Disable syncing for certain authors 
– Force syncing regardless of profile visibility 
– Apply environment-specific rules (e.g., staging vs production) 
– Implement client-specific dispatch policies
