FAQ
-
How do I connect GenerateBot to my WordPress site?
-
After activating the plugin, go to Settings > GenerateBot. Copy the Integration Token shown there and paste it into the GenerateBot Integrations page along with your site URL.
-
Can I choose whether articles are published as drafts?
-
Yes. You can set the default publish status in the plugin settings (draft or publish immediately), and you can also override it per article from the GenerateBot editor.
-
Does the plugin support featured images?
-
Yes. If you include a featured image URL when publishing from GenerateBot, the plugin will automatically download the image and set it as the post’s featured image.
-
What happens if a category does not exist?
-
The plugin will create the category automatically when it receives an article with a category name that does not exist on your site.
-
Is my data secure?
-
All API communication is authenticated with a unique token generated per site. The plugin uses WordPress’s built-in
hash_equalsfor constant-time token comparison. We recommend using HTTPS on your WordPress site for encrypted communication. -
Can multiple GenerateBot accounts connect to the same site?
-
Currently, the plugin supports a single integration token per site. All GenerateBot accounts that need to publish to the same site should share the same token.
