WordPress Integration

Connect your WordPress site to Quotient to automatically sync your blog posts and streamline your content marketing workflow

Publishing a great blog post shouldn't require copying and pasting content between platforms or wrestling with WordPress's editor. If you're managing a blog, you want to focus on writing compelling content and optimizing for SEO, not dealing with the technical details of getting words onto your website.

That's why Quotient's WordPress integration lets you write your blog posts in Quotient and publish them directly to your WordPress site with one click. Make edits in Quotient, and your WordPress post updates automatically. Add a featured image in Quotient, and it uploads to WordPress without you lifting a finger. The whole workflow becomes seamless, letting you focus on what matters: creating great content.

Core Concepts

When you connect WordPress to Quotient, here's how the pieces fit together:

WordPress Site Connection
Your WordPress site connects to Quotient using Application Passwords, a secure authentication method built into WordPress. Unlike traditional integrations that require OAuth, WordPress uses simple username and password authentication designed specifically for apps like Quotient. This means no redirect URLs, no expiring tokens, just straightforward, reliable access.

Field Mappings
Field mappings control which information from your Quotient blog goes where on your WordPress site. For example, you might map your Quotient blog title to the WordPress post title, and your Quotient tags to WordPress tags. Quotient sets up sensible defaults automatically (title to title, content to content, etc.), but you can customize these if your WordPress setup uses custom fields or has special requirements.

Sync Status
Once you publish a blog to WordPress, Quotient remembers the connection. The button changes from "Publish to WordPress" to "Update WordPress" so you can keep making changes in Quotient and push updates to your live WordPress post. Quotient tracks which Quotient blog corresponds to which WordPress post ID, so updates always go to the right place.

Common Workflows

Here's how most teams use the WordPress integration day-to-day:

  1. Write your blog in Quotient. Use Quotient's collaborative writing features, AI assistance, and content planning tools to craft your post.

  2. Add your featured image and tags. Upload your hero image and add relevant tags for SEO.

  3. Click "Publish to WordPress." Quotient sends your content to WordPress as a draft post. You can review it in WordPress and manually publish when ready.

  4. Make edits in Quotient as needed. If you spot a typo or want to update the content, edit it in Quotient and click "Update WordPress" to sync your changes.

This workflow works whether you're publishing one blog post a week or managing dozens of posts across multiple WordPress sites. The integration handles the busy work of moving content between platforms so you can focus on writing and strategy.
