Available triggers
Note that due to their nature, each script only supports certain triggers. For example it wouldn’t make sense for a script enforcing the content of a post to trigger when a user is added to a group.
All of the available triggers are mentioned in the “Available scripts” table above.
Most of the triggers are self-explanatory, but here are a couple that may need a little more detail:
| Trigger | Description |
|---|---|
| After post cook | Triggers after a post is rendered for display |
| API Call | Triggers when a certain API endpoint is called |
| Stalled wiki | Triggers when a wiki hasn’t been edited for a while |
| Stalled topic | Triggers when a topic has not received replies after a certain time |
| Topic | Triggers when a reply is made to a topic |
