Community Node Disclaimer

This workflow uses KlickTipp community nodes, available for self-hosted n8n instances only.


Who’s it for

Marketing teams and course/community operators using WordPress and KlickTipp who want to automate the full bridge between lead capture and member engagement:

  • Instant member access: Automatically create WordPress subscriber accounts after a KlickTipp form signup.
  • Consent-safe provisioning: Only create accounts if the user explicitly consented.
  • Engagement tracking: Pull approved WordPress comments and write them into the KlickTipp contact profile.
  • Interest segmentation: Automatically tag contacts based on which landing page/content they commented on.

This workflow removes manual user creation, keeps your marketing database enriched with behavioral data, and enables highly targeted follow-up campaigns.


How it works

This workflow connects KlickTipp ↔ WordPress in two directions: (1) Signup → Account creation, and (2) Comments → Profile enrichment + tagging.

KlickTipp → WordPress (User creation on signup)

Triggered by the Form signup for Wordpress in KlickTipp form webhook (RAW form submission):

  1. Consent Filter: The Filter node only allows signups where field229493 equals "I give consent".
  2. Identity Generation: Set username & password generates:
  • A unique, URL-safe username based on first + last name (normalized, special characters removed) plus the KlickTipp subscriber ID.
  • A 12-digit random numeric password stored as temporary_password.
  1. Account Provisioning: Generate Wordpress user from signup creates the user via WordPress (role: subscriber) using the generated username, password, and contact profile data.
  2. Role Enforcement: Generate Wordpress user from signup1 sets/ensures the WordPress role via REST API.
  3. Feedback to KlickTipp: Update Wordpress user ID in KlickTipp writes the WordPress account data back into KlickTipp custom fields:
  • field229462 → WordPress User ID
  • field228982 → WordPress Username
  • field228983 → Temporary Password

This enables automated onboarding emails that include login credentials (if you choose to send them).


WordPress → KlickTipp (Comment sync + profile enrichment)

Triggered daily by Pull comments trigger (scheduled at 08:00):

  1. Fetch Activity: Get last comments from Wordpress retrieves approved comments from the last 24 hours (via the after = now - 24h query parameter).
  2. Find the commenter in WordPress: Search WP Users with role Subscriber looks up the comment author by email and restricts results to WordPress users with role subscriber.
  3. Verify KlickTipp contact: Check for contact existence tries to find the KlickTipp subscriber by email.
  • If found → continue.
  • If not found → No Operation, do nothing prevents orphaned data writes.
  1. Write comment to KlickTipp: Write comment into contact field strips HTML from the comment content and stores the plain text in:
  • field229468 → last comment text

Segmentation & Tagging (based on comment source URL)

After the comment is stored, Check relevant segment evaluates the link (where the comment was posted) and applies tags accordingly:

  • Landingpage A commentTag contact applies tag ID 14162905
  • Landingpage B commentTag contact1 applies tag ID 14176702

This gives you interest-based tagging driven by real engagement, not just form submissions.


Setup steps

  1. Install Community Nodes: Ensure the KlickTipp community node is installed on your self-hosted n8n instance.
  2. KlickTipp form + consent field:
  • Use a RAW form and connect it to the webhook trigger.
  • Ensure you collect explicit consent and map it to field229493 with the value "I give consent".
  1. Create KlickTipp custom fields:
  • WordPress User ID → field229462
  • WordPress Username → field228982
  • WordPress Password → field228983
  • Last Comment Text → field229468
  1. WordPress API access:
  • Create an Application Password for a WordPress admin user.
  • Configure your WordPress credentials in n8n.
  1. Update URLs and segmentation rules:
  • Confirm your WordPress base URL matches your site (https://cht.klicktipptest.de/...).
  • Update the Check relevant segment switch rules to match your real landing page URLs.
  1. Test & activate:
  • Run one test signup to confirm user creation + field writeback.
  • Add a test comment and verify the comment text field + tag assignment.

Requirements

  • Self-hosted n8n instance (for KlickTipp community nodes).
  • KlickTipp account with API access.
  • WordPress site with REST API enabled.
  • WordPress user with permissions + Application Password (to create users and read comments).

How to customize

  • Role control: Change the assigned role from subscriber to other roles where appropriate.
  • Comment sync window: Adjust the after parameter in Get last comments from Wordpress (e.g., last 6 hours, last 7 days).
  • Richer segmentation: Add more cases in Check relevant segment for additional pages/topics and map them to different KlickTipp tag IDs.
  • Data enrichment: Store additional comment metadata (post title, URL, date) into extra KlickTipp fields if you want deeper profiling.
