# WordPress

> Let the Finseo agent optimize your WordPress posts, pages and meta tags for AI visibility.

# 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.

<Note>
  Application passwords require WordPress 5.6+ and an HTTPS site. Some security plugins disable them — check the plugin settings if the section is missing.
</Note>

## 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

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Connection fails with 401/403">
    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.
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="The REST API is unreachable">
    Confirm `https://your-site.com/wp-json/` returns JSON in the browser. Some hosts or firewalls block the REST API path.
