I'm using Airtable to keep a real-time list of plugins for multiple WP sites, and have an almost-working setup with Zapier emailing new plugin data when a plugin is activated or deleted.
The email is correct upon plugin activation, however upon deactivation the recently-deactivated plugin is still included in the list. Is the plugin list somehow being cached?
Almost-working code:
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
// send an email on plugin activate / deactivate
////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
function urlToDomain($url) {
return implode(array_slice(explode('/', preg_replace('/https?:\/\/(www\.)?/', '', $url)), 0, 1));
}
function detect_plugin_change( $plugin, $network_activation ) {
$url = urlToDomain(site_url());
$the_plugs = get_option('active_plugins');
sort ( $the_plugs );
foreach($the_plugs as $key => $value) {
$string = explode('/',$value);
$plugins .= $string[0] .", ";
}
$to = [email address removed];
$subject = $url;
$body = $plugins;
$headers = array('Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8');
wp_mail( $to, $subject, $body, $headers );
}
add_action( 'activated_plugin', 'detect_plugin_change', 10, 2 );
add_action( 'deactivated_plugin', 'detect_plugin_change', 10, 2 );
This sends an email like this:
To: [email address removed]
Subject: sitename
Body: admin-menu-editor, display-posts-shortcode, gravityforms, list-pages-shortcode, plugin-central, simple-history, taxonomy-list-shortcode, user-switching, wordpress-seo, wp-scss
Any ideas what needs to be edited so that it works properly upon plugin deactivation? Thank you!

Share Improve this question asked Feb 7, 2019 at 5:58 razorfrograzorfrog 154 bronze badges 2- 1 What about the bulk activation/deactivation case, e.g. if you bulk deactivate 10 plugins, wouldn't that mean 10 emails? – birgire Commented Feb 7, 2019 at 8:42
- Yes, an email is sent for each plugin, including bulk activations/deactivations. I'm not that worried about it though - zapier will process them all into Airtable. – razorfrog Commented Feb 7, 2019 at 15:43

Reset to default 1If you look here in /wp-admin/includes/plugin.php
do_action( 'deactivated_plugin', $plugin, $network_deactivating );
}
}
if ( $do_blog )
update_option('active_plugins', $current);
if ( $do_network )
update_site_option( 'active_sitewide_plugins', $network_current );
The options aren't updated until after the hook fires.
You can get around this by using the first parameter to deactivated_plugin:
function detect_plugin_change( $plugin, $network_activation ) {
$url = urlToDomain(site_url());
$the_plugs = get_option('active_plugins');
sort ( $the_plugs );
foreach($the_plugs as $value) {
// Skip the deactivated plugin.
if ( $plugin === $value ) {
continue;
}
$string = explode('/',$value);
$plugins .= $string[0] .", ";
}
$to = [email address removed];
$subject = $url;
$body = $plugins;
$headers = array('Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8');
wp_mail( $to, $subject, $body, $headers );
}
Edit: You can also get "fancy" and provide more details about the plugins, if needed, using get_plugin_data.
