WordPress

Connect your WordPress site to let the Finseo agent edit posts, pages, custom post types, Yoast/RankMath meta tags, and structured data directly from the chat. The agent reads existing content first, asks for your approval, and creates automatic backups before every change — any previous version can be restored instantly.

What the agent can do

  • Rewrite titles, meta descriptions and content for AI citability.
  • Update Yoast SEO / RankMath meta fields.
  • Inject JSON-LD structured data (FAQ, HowTo, Product, …).
  • Work across posts, pages and custom post types.

Create an application password

Finseo connects via the WordPress REST API with an application password — your normal password is never stored:
  1. In WordPress admin, go to Users → Profile (your own profile).
  2. Scroll to Application Passwords, enter a name (e.g. “Finseo”) and click Add New Application Password.
  3. Copy the generated password — it is shown only once.
Application passwords require WordPress 5.6+ and an HTTPS site. Some security plugins disable them — check the plugin settings if the section is missing.

Connect

  1. In Finseo, open Integrations → WordPress → Connect.
  2. Enter your site URL, your WordPress username, and the application password.
  3. Save — then open the Agent and start optimizing, e.g. “Optimize the meta descriptions of my 5 most-cited blog posts”.

Safety

  • Every edit requires your confirmation before it is applied.
  • Finseo creates a backup of the previous version before each change and can restore it at any time.

Troubleshooting

Check that the username matches the profile the application password was created under, and that a security plugin (e.g. Wordfence) isn’t blocking the REST API or application passwords.
Confirm https://your-site.com/wp-json/ returns JSON in the browser. Some hosts or firewalls block the REST API path.
