# Export to WordPress

TIP

WordPress exports are available from version 1.24.0

Folge can natively publish any guide to a self-hosted WordPress site via the WP REST API. Open any guide, click Export, and select Export to WordPress.

# Setting up the connection

WARNING

This integration only works with self-hosted WordPress. WordPress.com(opens new window) sites use a different API, and Application Passwords there are gated to Business-plan subscribers.

You need:

  • Full URL to your WordPress site — including any subfolder if WP is installed in one (e.g. https://site.com/blog/)
  • Admin username
  • Admin password or an Application Password

We strongly recommend using an Application Password — it can be rotated independently of your main login and limits blast radius if leaked. How to create an Application Password(opens new window) .

Settings

Click Test Connection to verify the credentials before saving.

# Publishing a guide

Currently Folge publishes guides as Pages. Custom Post Types support is on the roadmap.

UI

  1. Site picker — pick the destination site if your WordPress instance hosts multiple
  2. Search — find an existing page by title
  3. Action per page — for each page in the tree, you can:
    • Publish as new page at the root
    • Publish as a sub-page of a selected page
    • Overwrite an existing page

If you overwrite an existing page, Folge will remove that page's previous attachments and replace its content entirely with the new guide.

TIP

Overwriting an article takes ownership of it from this guide. Future re-publishes of the same guide will update that page rather than creating duplicates.
