Choose WordPress for a self-hosted site. For a site hosted on WordPress.com, use WordPress.com setup.

Connect a site

1

Prepare the Weelkit Plugin

Install the current Weelkit Plugin in WordPress. Open Settings → Weelkit Plugin and generate a connection token. If Weelkit asks you to update the plugin, update it before continuing setup. Version 0.6.0 or later supports bulk status checks; the version number alone does not prove compatibility.
2

Connect in Weelkit

Open Organization settings → CMS, choose Connect CMS, and select WordPress. Enter your Site URL and Weelkit Plugin token, then choose Connect.
3

Choose a post type

After the connection is saved, choose Next. Select the one WordPress post type Weelkit should use for articles, then choose Next to read its fields.
4

Save the field mapping

Review the suggested mappings and choose the WordPress fields for your article values. Choose Save mapping to save changes, or Next if shown. Only the saved mapping decides what Weelkit sends.
5

Choose publishing defaults

Set Default status to Draft or Published, when publishing is available for the selected type. Choose what happens When the article already exists: Ask before updating, Always update existing, or Always create a new item. Choose Save and continue.
6

Verify a test draft

Choose Verify test draft. Weelkit uses your saved mapping to create a temporary draft and read it back. Review the field results and inspect the draft in WordPress. You can choose Delete draft to remove it.When verification succeeds, choose Continue to finish setup.

Available fields

The mapping shows writable fields exposed by your selected post type and installed plugins. Registered custom metadata must be exposed through the WordPress REST API. Yoast, Rank Math and ACF fields depend on the installed definitions and your permissions. Map the featured image and its Alternative text, Caption, Image title and Description to enable those controls in the editor. Only enabled details appear. Removing a previously sent featured image removes its association with the post; the uploaded attachment remains in WordPress. Only fields shown in the mapping can be sent. Rank Math’s separate Schema and Redirect resources, untyped serialized add-ons, and ACF gallery, flexible-content and nested-reference combinations are unavailable.

Send an article

Open the article in the editor and choose Send draft to CMS or Publish to CMS, according to your saved default. See Send to your CMS for updates and confirmation.

Finish setup later

Choose Finish later to leave setup. The saved connection remains in Organization settings → CMS. Choose Continue setup on the connection when you are ready to resume.
