WordPress integration

Connect WordPress to publish articles directly to your WordPress site.

Required credentials

• WordPress site URL
• WordPress username (user with publishing permission)
• WordPress Application Password

Setup steps

1. Open WordPress Admin.
2. Go to Users → Profile (for the publishing user).
3. In Application Passwords, create a new password for Blogflair.
4. Copy the generated password immediately (WordPress shows it once).
5. In Blogflair, open your brand’s WordPress integration form.
6. Enter:
   • Site URL (with or without https://)
   • Username
   • Application Password
7. Click Test Connection.

Recommended permissions

• Use a dedicated WordPress user for API publishing.
• Grant only required role capabilities (Author/Editor depending on workflow).
• Avoid using a personal admin account when possible.

Publishing behavior

• Blogflair sends title/content/metadata to WordPress via REST API.
• You can use your WordPress side to handle categories/tags/review workflows.

Common issues

Authentication failed

• Recreate the Application Password and paste it again.
• Confirm username matches the account that generated the password.

Site URL rejected

• Use your canonical WordPress URL.
• If WordPress is in a subdirectory, include it correctly.

Permission denied

• Ensure the WordPress user role can create/publish posts.

Security tips

• Rotate Application Passwords regularly.
• Revoke passwords not actively used.
