    Hello,

    I’m experiencing issues across all my WordPress sites after the recent update to Make Connector version 1.6.0 (updated 3 days ago). These issues appear to be directly related to the plugin update.

    Issue 1 – Image Upload Problem (Resolved): After the update, I lost the ability to upload images through all Make.com scenarios. I managed to fix this by going to each connection in Make.com and re-entering the API keys (even though they hadn’t changed). While this resolved the image upload issue, it required manual intervention for every connection.

    Issue 2 – HTML Content Formatting Lost: The plugin is now stripping all HTML formatting from content. Previously, when sending HTML-formatted content like this:

    <p>Every time I flip a maqluba pot onto the table, I return to nostalgic moments...</p>
    <h2>Recipe Preparation Time</h2>
    <p>This recipe requires a bit of patience, but I promise it's worth every moment...</p>
    <h2 class="ak-bg-title">Ingredients</h2>
    <ul>
        <li>600g Basmati rice, washed and soaked for 30 minutes</li>
        <li>1.2kg chicken thighs or drumsticks on the bone, skinless</li>
        <li>2 large white onions (about 300g), thinly sliced</li>
    </ul>
    

    The content would be properly rendered with all HTML tags preserved (paragraphs, headings, lists, etc.).

    Now, after the v1.6.0 update, all HTML content is being uploaded as plain text in a single paragraph block, with all HTML tags removed. This breaks the formatting of all content being pushed through the plugin.

    This is affecting all my production sites and is disrupting my automated content workflows. I suspect this might be related to the new “Enhanced file upload validation” or “Request payload size limits” features introduced in v1.6.0.

    Please advise on:

    1. How to fix the HTML formatting issue
    2. Whether this is a known issue with v1.6.0
    3. If a rollback to v1.5.10 is recommended until this is resolved

    Thank you for your assistance.

  • Hi,

    I’m experiencing exactly the same issue after updating to Make Connector v1.6.0. All of my automated WordPress publishing scenarios are now stripping out all HTML formatting, turning rich HTML content into plain text paragraphs only.

    Just like you, I’ve confirmed that this problem started immediately after the 1.6.0 update, and everything was working perfectly with previous versions.

    Currently, the only workaround I’ve found is to roll back the Make Connector plugin to version 1.5.10. Once reverted, all my HTML-formatted content is published correctly again with full formatting.

    This issue is affecting all my production workflows as well, so I would appreciate any update or official fix from the Make/WordPress team.

    Thank you!

    Thanks for the reports. Our team is already on this and is expecting to release a fix imminently. I’ll post again here when I have more news.

    That was even quicker that I expected – v1.6.1 now released to address the HTML issue.

    If you’re able to confirm that resolves the problem it would be much appreciated!

    Thank you for the incredibly fast response and fix!

    I’ve just updated to v1.6.1 and can confirm that the HTML formatting issue is completely resolved. Content is now rendering properly with all HTML tags preserved, exactly as it was before.

    I really appreciate the quick turnaround on this – having a fix released within hours is exceptional support. Everything is working perfectly now across all my sites.

    Thanks again for your prompt attention to this issue!

    Thanks for the positive feedback – I’ve relayed that to our escalations team.

    If you feel motivated to give a positive review as a result that would be great!

    The WordPress module is stripping out inline css and javascript for me.
    I ran my automation a few minutes ago and as you can see the two items in bold in the input below get stripped out in the output. I badly need this fixed as it effects a lot of my automations.

    Input:

    <p class=”text-center”>Offers Ends [next-sunday format=”M jS”]</p> <div class=”d-flex d-flex-row gap mobile-center justify-center”> <div class=”col”> <button class=”submit-link light white-b load-modal”>VIEW CLOSE OUT SAVINGS LIST</button> <div style=”display:none;”><p class=”h3″>VIEW CLOSE OUT SAVINGS LIST</p> <script src=”https://hpforms.bpimclients.com/frm_embed/ht-ss-savings-list/”></script&gt; </div></div></div>

    Output:

    <p class=”text-center”>Offers Ends [next-sunday format=”M jS”]</p> <div class=”d-flex d-flex-row gap mobile-center justify-center”> <div class=”col”> <button class=”submit-link light white-b load-modal”>VIEW CLOSE OUT SAVINGS LIST</button> <div><p class=”h3″>VIEW CLOSE OUT SAVINGS LIST</p> </div></div></div>

    Hi @mikejc

    We’ve seen some tags were still being stripped. The feature was introduced because of the potential security to inject arbitrary HTML content to the post.

    In version 1.6.3 we’ve now made added a post content sanitization option (default off, but recommended).

    Please install this version and let me know if it resolves the problem.
