What is WordPress Publisher?
The WordPress Publisher skill bridges the gap between AI-driven content generation and live web publishing. By integrating with the WordPress REST API, this addition to the Openclaw Skills library allows developers and content managers to bypass manual formatting. It translates raw Markdown into native Gutenberg blocks, ensuring that headings, tables, and lists are rendered perfectly in the block editor.
Beyond simple posting, this skill provides a robust framework for content management. It handles secure authentication via Application Passwords and provides tools for intelligent category selection and automated SEO tag generation. Whether you are building an automated news feed or a technical blog, this skill ensures your content is structured for both human readers and search engine crawlers.
WordPress Publisher Use Cases
- Automating the deployment of AI-generated articles directly to a WordPress blog.
- Converting technical Markdown documentation into polished Gutenberg pages with formatted code blocks.
- Managing high-volume content updates across multiple WordPress installations using Openclaw Skills.
- Scheduling a series of posts for future publication to maintain a consistent content calendar.
- Transforming legacy HTML or Markdown archives into modern block-editor formatted posts.
How WordPress Publisher Works
- Establish a secure connection to the WordPress REST API using site credentials and a unique Application Password.
- Fetch existing site metadata, including active categories and tags, to ensure proper content organization.
- Analyze the source content to intelligently map it to the best available category and generate high-impact SEO tags.
- Execute a transformation engine that converts Markdown syntax into structured Gutenberg block comments and HTML.
- Generate a draft post and provide a preview URL to verify formatting, block rendering, and link integrity.
- Update the post status to publish immediately or set a future date for automated scheduling.
WordPress Publisher Setup
To get started with this skill within the Openclaw Skills framework, you must first generate an Application Password in your WordPress admin under Users > Profile. Once you have your credentials, you can initialize the publisher.
# Ensure your environment has the required scripts
# scripts/wp_publisher.py
# scripts/content_to_gutenberg.py
# Test your connection via CLI
python -c "from scripts.wp_publisher import WordPressPublisher; wp = WordPressPublisher(site_url='https://your-site.com', username='your-user', password='xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx'); print(wp.test_connection())"

The WordPress Publisher skill organizes data according to the standard WordPress REST API v2 schema, with specialized handling for block-based content:
| Component | Format | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Content Blocks | Gutenberg HTML | Markdown transformed into blocks like wp:table or wp:code. |
| Taxonomy | IDs / Slugs | Categories and Tags mapped to internal WordPress database IDs. |

| Metadata | JSON | Includes SEO excerpts, custom slugs, and publication timestamps. |
