Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Vanilla Bean Slack Hooker

Slack, Mattermost and Google Chat. Custom endpoints that accept a Slack-style payload also work. Email addresses can be used as endpoints instead of a webhook. Google Chat support is new in this release. If a message does not arrive, please tell us at support@velvary.com.au and include the webhook host, so we can fix it.

By default, messages are queued and sent via WordPress cron to avoid blocking page loads. You can force immediate sending by setting sendnow="true" in shortcodes or $now=true in programmatic calls.

Yes! You can configure multiple default endpoints in the admin settings, or specify additional endpoints using the alsoto parameter in shortcodes and programmatic calls.

The order total, plus an admin link to open the order in WooCommerce.

Yes. PHP Error Alerts sends PHP errors to your endpoint with a call trace, and lets you exempt errors you do not want to hear about. It ships disabled, so switch it on at Vanilla Beans > Slack Hooker > Notifications > PHP Error Alerts.

Yes, the plugin works on WordPress multisite installations. Each site maintains its own webhook configuration and notification settings.

Absolutely! The new data message functions (5.5.2+) allow you to create rich formatted messages with custom colors, structured data fields, and flexible styling options.
