One issue I kept hitting when building WordPress → n8n automations:
A webhook fires once and that’s it.
If the workflow fails or you fix a bug later, there is no way to re-run the original event without recreating the WordPress action.
So I added a “Replay webhook” feature to my plugin.
Now every webhook event:
• is logged
• stores the original payload
• can be replayed from the log
This lets you instantly re-run the automation without triggering WordPress again.
I built this into my plugin:
Flow Systems Webhook Actions
Nice! Webhook reliability is a huge pain. Have you noticed that you webhook issues stem mostly from the n8n side or from Wordpress?
Good question. From what I’ve seen it’s usually not WordPress failing — it’s timeouts, the receiving service being down, or workflow errors while debugging in n8n.
The annoying part was fixing a workflow and realizing the original webhook event was already gone because WordPress fires it only once.
That’s what pushed me to add delivery logs and a replay feature so you can resend the exact payload without triggering WordPress again.
Excellent, you experience matches what I’ve seen as well with n8n which is one of the reasons we built our service.
Nice work on your plugin!
Thanks! Good luck with your service!
