How to Automate a WordPress Blog with Editorial Review

Blog automation can handle repetitive preparation and delivery. You still decide what deserves to be published. Here is a manageable workflow for turning a topic into a reviewed WordPress post.

1. Connect a website you control

In Autopubly, open Sites and add your WordPress website. Use the connection flow with a WordPress user that has the necessary publishing permissions. Confirm the site name and domain before approving access. Appearance controls in Autopubly AI use the optional Autopubly WordPress connector; installing a theme is not required just to plan content.

  • Use your real HTTPS website URL, not a WordPress admin or login URL.
  • Set the site’s niche, language and timezone.
  • Keep a WordPress backup before installing plugins or changing themes.

2. Create a small, focused campaign

Open Campaigns, select the site, give the campaign a descriptive name and enter the topics or keywords you want to cover. Check your available weekly capacity before starting. Choose Save as draft if you want to inspect the first result in WordPress before any public release.

  • Prefer a specific reader question to an overly broad topic.
  • Check for existing articles on your site to avoid repeating the same subject.
  • Start with one article while verifying a new connection.

3. Review the article and its supporting assets

Generation brings together the article, images and search metadata. An “article ready” status means the content has been generated; it does not prove WordPress has scheduled or published it. Read the article, inspect the visuals and make any necessary corrections before releasing it.

  • Check factual claims, names, dates and source links.
  • Add examples or firsthand knowledge that make the article useful.
  • Check the title, headings, description and image relevance.
  • Remove unsupported claims and confirm that you have rights to the material.

4. Check the calendar and the destination

Use Calendar to inspect the planned date and time in the selected site’s timezone. Keep the daily limit in mind: Autopubly caps WordPress releases at three per site per day. Check the WordPress post itself to confirm that the remote status and intended schedule agree. WordPress publication also depends on the website being reachable and its scheduling system running.

5. Verify the published article

Once the release time has passed, open the article’s public URL from the workspace. Check the page as a visitor: headline, image, body, links and mobile layout. A job marked complete is not a replacement for checking the final page, particularly after changing a WordPress theme or plugin.

If a post does not appear

First distinguish content generation from publishing. If it is still a draft, it is not meant to be public. If it is scheduled, check the site timezone and WordPress status. If the connection needs attention, repair the authorization before retrying. Look for an existing WordPress post before submitting again to avoid duplicates. Contact support with the site, article title, intended time and visible error—never send passwords or tokens.

Where Pinterest fits

Pinterest is a separate distribution step. Connect your own account, select a board, then review and approve each Pin. Do not assume that a generated WordPress article has also been posted to Pinterest. Follow the Pinterest checklist linked below.
