Connect a WordPress site when you want to send Pinsearch article drafts directly into WordPress. Once a site is connected, it can appear as a publishing destination in the Article Editor.

​
Open WordPress settings

  1. In Pinsearch, open Settings.
  2. Select the WordPress tab.
  3. Find WordPress Connections.
If you have not connected a site yet, click Add WordPress Site. If you already have at least one site connected, click Add Another Site to connect a second site.

​
Add a WordPress site

Fill in these fields:
  • Site Name: A friendly name you will recognize inside Pinsearch.
  • Site URL: The public URL of your WordPress site, such as https://example.com.
  • Username: The WordPress username Pinsearch should use.
  • Application Password: A WordPress application password created for Pinsearch.
Pinsearch may clean up the site URL while saving, such as removing extra spaces or trailing slashes.

​
Save and verify the connection

Click Save Changes. Before saving the site, Pinsearch checks whether it can connect to WordPress with the URL, username, and application password you entered. If the connection works, Pinsearch saves the site and shows a success message. If the connection fails, review the error message and update the field it points to.

​
Edit a connected site

  1. Open Settings.
  2. Select WordPress.
  3. Find the connected site.
  4. Click Edit.
  5. Update the site name, URL, username, application password, or default setting.
  6. Click Save Changes.
Pinsearch verifies the connection again before saving your changes.

​
Remove a connected site

Use Remove when you no longer want Pinsearch to publish to that WordPress site.
Removing a WordPress site from Pinsearch stops it from appearing as a publishing destination. It does not delete posts already created in WordPress.

​
How connected sites are used

Connected sites appear in the Article Editor’s Site selector when you publish an article. If you mark a site as the default destination, Pinsearch preselects it when you open the publishing panel.
