 * I have a set of automations that award gamipress points when a user publishes
   a post of a specific taxonomy term. They were functioning until yesterday (and
   can still be seen in the log).
 * Now those triggers have all stopped – nothing in the log. I have restored my 
   build from Saturday with 5.2.1.1 (before last update) and tested multiple user
   types but the trigger still fails for all.
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fpublish-post-type-trigger-not-functioning%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Hi [@forwardlabs](https://wordpress.org/support/users/forwardlabs/) ,
 * I would be more than happy to assist you today.
 * If you have any cache plugin, please try adding an exception for the AutomatorWP
   folder or deactivating it, since some cache plugins sometimes generates some 
   issues with AutomatorWP.
 * Also, if you have any custom code, please deactivate it before doing the tests
   in case it may be interfering.
 * Hope it helps!
