WordPress to Slack Error Message — won't publish

I’m working on a release to hopefully go out in the next week that fixes a few bugs. After that goes out, let me know if it’s still broken.

For now, make sure a channel is defined in the channel field. Otherwise, sometimes Slack is down and can’t receive a message.

Thanks for the reply!

Yup, neither of those conditions apply here. I’ll await your next upgrade and let you know one way or another!

Hi Rachel,

We do hit similar errors often lately, I’ve also sent a PR on GitHub for another issue related to those kind of errors and fatal errors. Is there any timeline for a new release or anything that we could look into in order to help with the fix?

Oddly I’m experiencing the same error. When I test the token it throws a non helpful error. I regenerate the token on Slack, but same error. But when I delete that webhook and create a new one with the same token, it works OK. Then after a while, it seems the integration stops working and I’m scratching my head why.

EDIT: I realized that the webhook couldn’t find the channel to post in. I recommend changing the error message to reflect that.
