This week we would like to highlight a scenario brought to us by Thaigo Passos on his blog here<\/a>. The scenario is if you are writing for a blog, it can be challenging to get into the rhythm of posting on a frequent interval. The goal of this flow is to make sure that you keep up with posts on your Blog. It will send out a daily reminder specifically if you do NOT post every 10 days. You can build the flow from scratch or use this template here<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n Because you should get Daily reminders we will start out with a\u00a0Recurrence<\/strong> trigger that runs every day.\u00a0You will need select the Frequency menu and choose Day:<\/p>\n <\/p>\n The first step of the flow will be to list your existing Blog posts. The easiest way to do this is if your Blog has an RSS feed – select the List all RSS feed items<\/strong> action and then paste your blog’s URL.<\/p>\n Next, you will need to\u00a0Add a Condition<\/strong>\u00a0to check to see if any of those posts happened in the last 10 days. In order to build that you will need to select\u00a0Edit in advanced mode<\/strong>.\u00a0<\/p>\n <\/p>\n When you’re editing in advanced mode enter the following condition:<\/p>\n Finally, you need to add the action inside the If Yes<\/strong>\u00a0branch to send you the email notification on the days where there hasn’t been posts in the past 10 days. Select the Send me an email notification<\/strong> step.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n That’s all you need. Again, you can start with this template here<\/a> which has all of these steps built-in.
