Connect WordPress

Two ways to connect a WordPress site, what QuQi does with it once connected, and how to tell that it worked.

QuQi publishes finished articles straight to WordPress. There are two ways in: connect the site from the Integrations page, or install the QuQi WordPress plugin and connect from the WordPress side. Either way it takes your one publishing slot.

HIER STARTEN You need a WordPress application password, not your login password. WordPress creates these for you in its own user profile screen, and you can revoke one there without changing anything else.

Connect it from QuQi

Open Integrations

Make sure you are on the right website, then find WordPress under Publishing.

Create an application password in WordPress

Do this in your WordPress user profile, and copy the password it shows you.

Fill in the three fields

Your site URL, your WordPress username, and the application password you just copied.

Save

QuQi tests the credentials before storing them. If WordPress refuses them, you see WordPress’s own reason and nothing is saved.

Or connect through the plugin

The plugin is called QuQi AI and it is on the WordPress plugin directory: search for it under Plugins → Add New in your own admin, or read it first at wordpress.org/plugins/quqi-ai. It needs WordPress 5.8 or newer and PHP 7.4 or newer.

It connects your site from inside WordPress instead of from QuQi. It signs in with an API key that you create in QuQi under Settings → API Keys. The key is yours; the plugin narrows it to the one website you pick, so it only ever reaches that website’s data.

When a destination was connected this way, the Integrations page labels it as connected through the plugin, and QuQi publishes back through the plugin.

GUT ZU WISSEN An API key is shown once, at the moment you create it, and cannot be read back afterwards — only its first characters appear in the list. Only an owner or admin can create or revoke one, and revoking stops it working on the very next request.

A WordPress.com site is a different card

A site hosted on WordPress.com connects with your site address and an access token created through WordPress.com’s developer apps, not with an application password. It is its own card in the Publishing list and, like every publishing destination, it holds the single slot on its own.

What QuQi does once it is connected

The Copywriter publishes each article it writes to your site — on its own when its auto-approve is on, or after you press Approve in its chat when it is off.
Any written article can also be published from its own page, with Publish to WordPress. Publishing it again updates the same post rather than making a new one.
The cover image becomes the post’s featured image.
If publishing fails, the article is kept and the reason is shown — the writing is never lost.

Checking it worked

Look at the Integrations page

WordPress shows as connected, and the other publishing cards drop their Set up button for an “in use” note.

Publish one article by hand

Open a written article from its chat or its batch on the calendar, and press Publish to WordPress.

Open the post in WordPress

Read it there before you leave the Copywriter’s auto-approve on.

VORSICHT Publishing to your site needs a plan that includes CMS publishing. On the free plan the attempt tells you it unlocks with a subscription.
