Usage

  1. Create or edit a post, page, or other content type in WordPress

  4. Click the “Send to PostSimple” button
  5. You will be automatically redirected to PostSimple where you can view and edit the generated social media content

External services

This plugin connects to the PostSimple API to send your WordPress post data for automatic social media content generation.

What data is sent and when

When you click the “Send to PostSimple” button in the post editor, the plugin sends the following data to the PostSimple API:

  • The post title
  • The public URL (permalink) of the post

This data is only sent when the user explicitly clicks the “Send to PostSimple” button. No data is sent automatically or in the background.

Service details

This service is provided by PostSimple.

After sending, the plugin redirects the user to PostSimple at https://my.postsimple.app/lab to view the generated social media content.
