Posts, pages, media and categories. Boost can read and edit an existing WordPress site directly.

## Connecting

In the dashboard, open **Connectors**, find WordPress and press **Connect**. The key you enter is checked against WordPress before anything is saved, so a key that is refused never becomes a connection that fails later.

### What you will need

| Field                | What it is                                                                   |
| -------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Site URL             | Your WordPress site URL (e.g., [https://yoursite.com](https://yoursite.com)) |
| Username             | WordPress username (for Basic Auth)                                          |
| Application Password | A WordPress Application Password (Users → Profile → Application Passwords)   |
| JWT Token            | JWT token (requires JWT Authentication plugin)                               |

### Getting the credential

WordPress REST API supports multiple auth methods. For Application Passwords, go to Users > Profile > Application Passwords. Many operations work without authentication.

## Notes

* Many operations work without authentication (public content)
* Uses WordPress REST API (wp-json/wp/v2/)
* Supports standard WordPress content types
* Admin privileges needed for user/settings management
* Rate limiting depends on hosting configuration

See [WordPress REST API docs](https://developer.wordpress.org/rest-api/) for complete reference.
