The Article Editor checks for common issues before you send an article to WordPress. If everything looks ready, the Publish panel shows Ready. If something needs attention, it shows the number of warnings.

What warnings mean

Warnings do not always mean publishing is impossible. They mean Pinsearch found something worth fixing before you send the article. Some warnings block publishing, such as having no connected WordPress site. Others are quality reminders, such as missing alt text.

​
Common warnings and fixes

Connect a WordPress site in Settings before using Send to WordPress.You can still use Copy or Download under Manual export if you want to publish manually.
Choose a site in the Site field.This can happen when you have connected sites but none is currently selected for this article.
Add a clear article title at the top of the editor.The title is used for the WordPress post title and for manual export.
Add or restore article content in the editor body.WordPress needs article content to create a useful post.
Open the Image tab, select each image, and fill in Alt text.Keep alt text short, descriptive, and specific to the image.
WordPress needs to fetch images from a public web URL before Pinsearch can attach them to a post.If this warning appears, save the article, check the affected image, and try publishing again. If it keeps happening, use manual export and upload that image directly inside WordPress.
Sometimes WordPress accepts the post but does not accept SEO metadata from Pinsearch.If the post was created, open it in WordPress and enter the SEO title or meta description in your SEO tool manually.

If warnings remain

After fixing a warning:
  1. Click Save.
  2. Recheck the Publish panel.
  3. Send the article again when the warning count is gone or you understand what remains.
