How to Send WP Event Manager Data to Omnisend
Omnisend is a platform platform. WP Event Manager handles an event is submitted or a registration is received on your WordPress site. Omnisend is where that data needs to go. Here is how to connect them without Zapier or code.
Why not just use Zapier?
For connecting WP Event Manager to platform, a cloud automation service adds cost and a dependency on an external server. AFI runs on your site with no task limits.
What you will need
- A WordPress site with WP Event Manager installed and configured.
- A Omnisend account.
- The Advanced Form Integration plugin (free from WordPress.org).
Connect Omnisend to AFI
Omnisend uses OAuth 2.0 for authentication. In AFI → Settings → Omnisend, click Authorize and grant access. This is a one-time step.
Setting up the integration
1. Create a new integration
Go to AFI → Add New. Name it WP Event Manager to Omnisend.
2. Pick your trigger
Select WP Event Manager as the form provider. AFI fires when an event is submitted or a registration is received, giving you access to organizer name, email, event title, event date, venue, and ticket type.
3. Select Omnisend as the destination
Choose Omnisend from the platform dropdown and pick Add Record. This creates a record in Omnisend.
4. Map fields
Match each Omnisend field on the left to the corresponding WP Event Manager field on the right. Common mappings include organizer name, email, event title, event date, venue, and ticket type. You can also use smart tags like {{_submission_date}}.
5. Add conditions if needed
Only want to send certain records? Set up a conditional rule based on any field value.
6. Save and test
Click Save Integration. Trigger a test event in WP Event Manager. Check Omnisend to confirm the data arrived. If anything looks wrong, open AFI → Log to see the exact request and response.
Free vs Pro
The free version maps name and email to Omnisend with unlimited records. Pro adds custom field mapping. No per-record fees on any plan.
