# Beyond customising the look, my first real dalliance with Alfred has been to re-purpose John Johnston's workflow for posting to WordPress.

I've made a slight modification to his script and added an extra action to open the new post in Safari.

There are still a couple of issues with items getting escaped in certain circumstances but not as many as the AppleScript I was testing. The workflow submits items as drafts so I can tweak before publishing.

Next, I'm going to see if I can combine the workflow with my original script to see if I can get it working via the REST API rather than XML-RPC.

# So, Shortcuts in iOS12 look like the first fruits of the Workflow acquisition. I wonder how flexible it will be and how it will compare to Workflow. 🤔

@colinwalker It looks exactly like Workflow aside from some of the UI changes. Also seems there’s no 3rd party integrations present. Still; happy to see this, and combined w/how Siri is learning along the way, could be very beneficial.
