Connect WordPress under Settings → WordPress to send articles with their images, featured image and supported SEO details.

​
Before connecting

Use the site’s WordPress URL and a WordPress user allowed to create posts and upload images. Create an application password for Pinsearch; do not use the user’s normal login password.
1

Add the site

In Settings → WordPress, add a site and enter Site name, Site URL, Username and Application password. Use the address where WordPress is installed, including its subdirectory if applicable.
2

Choose its default status

Select the default option if this should be the starting destination for articles. The first connected site becomes the default; only one site can be default at a time.
3

Save and check the result

Click Save site. Saving tests the connection before keeping it. Read any field errors and correct them before retrying.

​
Connection test

The check verifies more than a successful login: it checks that WordPress can create a test draft, then removes the test post. A warning about cleanup needs attention on the site. No documentation article is published by this check.

​
Multiple sites and changing the default

Give sites distinct names. Change the default in the site’s settings and save it. This sets a starting destination, so still confirm the site in each article’s Publish panel and automation’s Publish on WordPress step. Changing the default does not move existing posts between sites or change Pinterest destination links already saved in Publishing.

​
Edit or remove a connection

Expand a saved site to update its details. Save the edited connection to test it again. Removing a connection removes it from Pinsearch’s destinations; posts already on WordPress remain there. Check Automations that use the site before removing it. If credentials were revoked in WordPress, create a replacement application password and update the connection. Free supports one connected WordPress site. See connection problems and sending articles.
