Automate free game posts in WordPress
They used n8n to watch game giveaway sources, enrich each listing, and send the finished post into WordPress.
- What they did
- They built a scheduled n8n automation that scans giveaway pages from Epic, Prime Gaming, and Steam for free titles. It removes duplicates, then uses a self-hosted Browserless setup to fetch missing blurbs, images, and expiration dates before saving each new game in NocoDB. From there, the flow prepares a WordPress entry by API, attaches the featured image, and gets it ready to go live. FluentCRM handles subscriber email alerts afterward.
- How it went
- The project launched after roughly five days of part-time work, with just a few hours spent on it each day. The author later added AI-generated game sheets, but source-link collection for those sheets was still unfinished.
- Tips
- This approach relies on n8n, Browserless, NocoDB, FluentCRM, and WordPress working together. A safe version should always pause on a draft for review before any post or email is sent out.
Try it yourself with n8n
Build an n8n workflow that runs on [schedule], looks for newly free games on [Epic Games Store, Prime Gaming, Steam], and gathers each game’s title, short description, image, expiry date, and store URL. Keep a record of each new game in [NocoDB], then prepare a [WordPress] post with the image attached and the content ready for review. Do not send, publish, or email anything until you show me a sample and I approve it. If any fields are missing, use [Browserless or another browser automation tool] to visit the source and fill them in. After one test run, report which games were found, what data you completed, and what still needs checking.
