Integration overview

What the WordPress integration actually does

What it does

Lets Slate Workflows and Power Sheets create new posts, update existing ones, and manage publish status directly on your site — no exports, no copy-paste.

Who it's for

Content and SEO teams publishing or refreshing WordPress posts faster than a one-at-a-time workflow can keep up with, especially at programmatic scale.

Key Capabilities

  • Create posts and pages
  • Update posts in place
  • Set publish status
  • Map custom fields
  • Upload featured images
  • Push at scale from a Sheet
Why teams connect it

What changes once WordPress is connected

Publish without
leaving Slate

Draft, review, and push live in one flow — no exporting a doc or logging into wp-admin.

Refresh without republishing by hand

Point Slate at a stale post's URL and it updates that same URL once the content is fixed.

Scale programmatic pages

Generate and publish hundreds of templated pages from one Sheet, each with its own research pass.

Setup to measurement

How the integration works

Five steps, under five minutes to connect. Click any step to see the detail.

Connect

Generate a WordPress Application Password and paste it into Slate with your site URL. Under five minutes, no developer required.

Configure

Map post type, category, and custom fields; set a default publish status.

Run

A Workflow researches the topic using Semrush or Ahrefs, drafts against your Brand Kit and Knowledge Base, and generates images.

Review & publish

Approve in Slate's queue, or auto-publish on a schedule you set — nothing goes live without passing through a human review gate.

Measure

GSC, GA4, and AI citation data flow back into Pages, so a decaying post gets flagged for a refresh automatically.

The difference that matters

A WordPress AI plugin vs. Slate

A plugin drafts text in your editor. It doesn't close the loop around it — research in, performance out.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does the Slate–WordPress integration take to set up?

Under five minutes: generate an Application Password in WordPress, then paste it into Slate with your site URL.

Does Slate publish directly, or do I still copy-paste the article?

It publishes directly. Workflows push finished posts to WordPress as drafts or live, depending on how the step is configured.

Can Slate update posts that already exist, or only create new ones?

Both. Point a Workflow at an existing post's URL and Slate can refresh and republish it in place.

Does this work with a self-hosted site, or only WordPress.com?

Self-hosted WordPress with Application Passwords (WordPress 5.6+). Confirm current WordPress.com support before publishing.

What happens to my content if I disconnect the integration?

Nothing on your WordPress site changes. Slate loses publish access until you reconnect.
