About FoPost for WooCommerce
From the official readme · v0.1.0Description
FoPost for WooCommerce watches your shop and hands the moments worth announcing to FoPost, which delivers them to your connected social accounts.
Three triggers, each one optional
- Product published when a product first goes live
- Product goes on sale the moment a sale price starts applying
- Product back in stock when stock returns after running out
Every trigger is off until you turn it on, and each one has its own message.
Messages you write, with placeholders
Write the copy once and let each product fill it in:
{product_name} `{price}` `{sale_price}` `{permalink}` `{short_description}` `{sku}` `{categories}`
The featured image goes along with the post, unless you turn that off. Developers can add their own placeholders with the fopost_wc_template_placeholders filter.
Per-product control
Every product gets a FoPost box on its edit screen: opt this one out entirely, write a message just for it, or press Post Now.
It never slows down your shop
Publishing a product does not wait on a network call. The work is handed to Action Scheduler, the queue that already runs your store, which retries a failed delivery and keeps a record you can inspect.
A record of everything sent
WooCommerce, FoPost Activity lists what was posted for which product, with the FoPost post ID. A delivery that fails is written down and raised as an admin notice rather than disappearing.
What you need
A FoPost account with an API key, at least one connected social account, and WooCommerce 8.0 or newer.

Third-Party Services
This plugin sends data to FoPost, a hosted publishing service at
fopost.com. You need a FoPost account and an API key for
the plugin to do anything.
When a product you have enabled is published, goes on sale, or comes back in
stock, the plugin calls the FoPost API at https://api.fopost.com and sends the
post text rendered from your message template — which can include the product
name, short description, price and permalink — along with the product image and
the accounts you chose to post to. FoPost then delivers that post to those
social accounts. Nothing is sent until you enter an API key and enable a
product event.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need a FoPost account?
Yes. This plugin composes the post and hands it to FoPost, which owns the connections to the social networks.
Do I need the FoPost connector plugin as well?
No. This add-on talks to the FoPost API with its own API key. The separate FoPost plugin does the opposite job, letting FoPost publish into WordPress, and the two do not depend on each other.
Will publishing a product feel slower?
No. A trigger only queues a job. The API call happens later, in Action Scheduler, in a separate request.
Can I stop one product from ever being posted?
Yes. Tick Never post this product in the FoPost box on that product’s edit screen.
What happens if FoPost is unreachable?
The attempt is recorded against the product as a failure, the reason appears as an admin notice, and Action Scheduler retries the job.
Can I add my own placeholder?
Yes. Use the fopost_wc_template_placeholders filter. There is a worked example in the plugin’s examples folder.
Is it compatible with High-Performance Order Storage?
Yes. The plugin declares compatibility and never touches order storage at all.
