Connect WordPress
Publish to your own WordPress site with an application password.
Use a WordPress account with permission to create posts on the destination site. The connection uses WordPress's application-password feature rather than your normal login password.
Create an application password
- Sign into your WordPress admin over HTTPS.
- Open the WordPress user's profile.
- Find Application Passwords and create one named outwrite.ai.
- Copy the generated password while WordPress displays it.
If application passwords are unavailable, check the WordPress version, HTTPS configuration, user permissions and any security plugin restrictions.
Add the connection
In outwrite.ai's publishing integrations, enter the site's base URL, a recognizable site name, the WordPress username and the application password.
Save the connection, then use Test connection. The connection check does not itself publish an article.
Choose publishing behavior
Open Plan → Schedule and publishing, select the WordPress destination and choose Draft or Publish. Where offered, choose author, category and tag settings for that destination.
Start with Draft. Deliver one reviewed article and inspect headings, tables, links and any theme-specific formatting in WordPress.
Check the result
A confirmed CMS draft is different from a verified public post. Use the receipt and destination link in outwrite.ai, then inspect the post on your site.
If WordPress accepted the post but the response was lost, do not immediately send it again. Reconcile the saved delivery first to avoid a duplicate.
Common connection issues
A 401 or 403 usually points to credentials, permissions or a blocked REST API. Check application-password access and security rules. A wrong base URL or REST API redirect can also prevent a connection.
Revoke the application password in WordPress if you no longer want outwrite.ai to access the site, and remove the connection in outwrite.ai.
For WordPress-side setup details, see the official application-password guide.
