Sync Your Campaigns to Wordpress

This feature is currently available by request only.

You can sync a campaign from InfluenceKit directly into your WordPress account. Plan the post in InfluenceKit — using comments and tasks to collaborate with your team — and when it’s ready, InfluenceKit creates the draft on your blog for you.

Connect Your Wordpress Account

Application Passwords have been built into WordPress core since version 5.6 — you don’t need to install a plugin.

  1. In Wordpress, go to the User Profile page of the user you want to generate a new application password for. When InfluenceKit syncs a post, it will assign it to this user.

  2. Scroll down to the Application Passwords section, near the bottom of the page.

  3. Type in a descriptive name (e.g. “InfluenceKit”) for your new application password, then click Add New.

  4. Copy the password that appears — it won’t be shown to you again. If you lose it, you’ll need to generate a new one.

  5. In InfluenceKit, go to the Connected Accounts page, click to add a new Wordpress account, and enter the fields:

Sync an InfluenceKit Campaign to Wordpress

Open the campaign and check the Sync to Wordpress box at the bottom of the campaign editing form:

What gets synced

When you check that box, InfluenceKit creates a draft in WordPress using the campaign’s name as the post title and its description as the post body. The campaign’s date becomes the post’s publish date.

After the initial sync, InfluenceKit won’t touch the post’s content again, so any edits you make in WordPress stay put. It will keep the publish date in sync: change the date in InfluenceKit, and it updates in WordPress too.
