Obsidian WP Plugin

Post directly to your WordPress blog from Obsidian.

Requirements

• WordPress 5.6 or greater (not WordPress.com)
• CORS support https://enable-cors.org/server.html

Instructions

• Ensure CORS is set up correctly on your server
• From the plugin settings page, add your credentials
• Make sure your WordPress user has the ability to create posts
• Verify your settings are working from the plugin settings page
• Use the "Publish to WordPress" command to upload the current page to your WordPress website

Plugin Options

• In the front matter you can specify various meta-data for your post:
  • https://developer.wordpress.org/rest-api/reference/posts/#create-a-post.
  • Categories and tags can be slugs or IDs.
  • Specify the "wp_slug" if you want a specific URL for your post.
  • Specify the "wp_status" to determine the WordPress publish status ("draft", "publish", etc.) default is "draft".

Example Front Matter:

---
wp_slug: 'hello-world'
wp_status: 'publish'
wp_excerpt: 'This is the post excerpt'
wp_categories: ['category-slug', 12]
wp_tags: ['tag-slug', 32]
---

Commenting

Text surrounded by HTML comment tags (see below), will be ignored and not published to WordPress. Handy if there are bits you want to exclude from WordPress but keep in the same Obsidian markdown file.
