WordPress-Specific Features

📝

Posts & Pages

🖼

Featured Images

Upload and set featured images for your posts and pages. Eye-catching thumbnails drive more clicks from your site.

📄

Content Management

Manage your WordPress content programmatically. Create, schedule, and organize posts without touching the admin panel.

📅

Scheduled Publishing

Schedule posts and pages for future publication with precise timestamps. Plan your content calendar in advance.

🤖

AI-Powered Workflows

Let AI agents draft, format, and publish your WordPress content. From idea to published post without manual intervention.

🔄

Multi-Site Support

Connect multiple WordPress sites and publish to any of them. Manage all your sites from a single Postiz account.

How It Works

Find Your WordPress Integration

List your connected accounts and grab your WordPress integration ID. You can also fetch available settings to see what options are supported.

Discovery

# List all integrations
postiz integrations:list

# Filter for WordPress
postiz integrations:list | jq \
  '.[] | select(.identifier=="wordpress")'

# Get WordPress settings schema
postiz integrations:settings <wordpress-id>

Prepare Your Content

Write your content and optionally upload a featured image. WordPress supports HTML content for rich formatting.

Upload

# Upload a featured image (optional)
RESULT=$(postiz upload featured.jpg)
IMAGE_PATH=$(echo "$RESULT" | jq -r '.path')
IMAGE_ID=$(echo "$RESULT" | jq -r '.id')

echo "Featured: $IMAGE_PATH"
# https://uploads.postiz.com/featured.jpg

Create Your Post

Create a WordPress post or page with your content, title, featured image, and content type settings.

Publish

postiz posts:create \
  -c "Post content..." \
  -s "2025-03-01T09:00:00Z" \
  --settings '{
    "title": "10 Tips for Better Code Reviews",
    "main_image": {
      "id": "img-id",
      "path": "https://uploads.postiz.com/featured.jpg"
    },
    "type": "post"
  }' \
  -i "wordpress-id"

What is Grok Bot?

Grok Bot is the always-on AI teammate product from xAI and Cursor. You create named Bots, give each one a job, and they work 24/7 on their own persistent cloud computer — with a browser, a filesystem, and a terminal — pinging you only when they need approval.

Grok Bot is not the Grok chatbot. Grok is the assistant you chat with on X and grok.com. Grok Bot is a separate app for delegating real, multi-step work — like running your WordPress presence with Postiz.

💻

Own Cloud Computer

Every Bot gets a persistent cloud machine with a terminal. Postiz runs there, so your WordPress posts go out even when your laptop is closed.

🔁

Routines

Turn any task into a routine that runs on a schedule. Your Bot drafts, schedules, and reports on WordPress content without being asked twice.

🛡️

Approvals Built In

Bots ask before changing external systems. Review the WordPress posts your Bot prepared in Postiz, approve, and it publishes.

How Postiz Works with Grok Bot

Postiz is listed on the Grok Bot plugin marketplace. Add it to a Bot and the Postiz skill, CLI, and command reference are installed on its cloud computer — the Bot can then manage your WordPress workflow on its own.

✓Type /add-plugin postiz in a Bot chat, or add it from the Plugins sidebar
✓Store your POSTIZ_API_KEY as a Bot secret when prompted
✓The Bot reads the bundled SKILL.md and learns every Postiz command
✓Works in every Bot on your shared workspace, on desktop and iPhone
✓Approvals keep a human in the loop before anything is published

Grok Bot

# 1. Add the plugin to your Bot
/add-plugin postiz

# 2. Store your Postiz API key
#    as a secret when prompted

# 3. Ask your Bot to verify
You: Find my WordPress channel in Postiz

Bot: Running postiz integrations:list
  Found your WordPress integration.
  All Postiz commands are ready.

WordPress Publishing with Grok Bot

Your Bot reads the Postiz skill, discovers your WordPress integration, and handles the entire posting workflow — from content creation to scheduling — on its own cloud computer.

🧠

Message Your Bot

Desktop, iPhone, or a group chat

Send a message to your Bot from the desktop app or your iPhone. It runs on its own cloud computer, so it picks up your message, discovers your WordPress account via Postiz, uploads your media, and schedules the post — then asks you to approve before it goes live.

Grok Bot

You: Post to WordPress about our new
  feature launch, schedule for tomorrow
  at 9am

Bot: Got it! Here's the plan:
  1. Find your WordPress integration
  2. Compose your post content
  3. Schedule for tomorrow 9:00 AM

  Done! Post scheduled successfully.
  Post ID: abc-123

🧠

Routines

Recurring work on a schedule

Save the task as a routine. Your Bot runs it on a schedule from the cloud, checks for new content, and posts it to WordPress automatically — no manual trigger needed.

Grok Bot routine

Routine: daily-wordpress-posts
Schedule: Weekdays at 9:00 AM

Instructions:
  Check ~/content/posts on your cloud
  computer for new .txt files. For
  each one, read the content and
  schedule a post to WordPress for
  today at noon via Postiz. Move
  posted files to ~/content/published
  and send me a summary.

Why Grok Bot + Postiz for WordPress

✓Official plugin — one command install from the marketplace
✓Always on — posts to WordPress from the cloud while you are away
✓Terminal access runs Postiz commands directly on the Bot's computer
✓Routines for hands-free daily posting
✓Cross-post to WordPress + other platforms in a single conversation
✓Approvals keep a human in the loop before publishing

Also Works with Claude Code

Postiz Agent works as a CLI tool with any AI agent that can execute shell commands — including Anthropic's Claude Code.

Claude Code

by Anthropic

Claude reads the SKILL.md file to learn all available Postiz commands, then autonomously discovers your WordPress integration, uploads your featured image, sets the content type, and publishes the post.

Claude Code

> Publish my code review tips article
  to WordPress as a blog post with
  a featured image

Claude will automatically run:
  postiz integrations:list
  postiz upload ./featured.jpg
  postiz posts:create \
    -c "$(cat code-review-tips.md)" \
    -s "2025-03-02T09:00:00Z" \
    --settings '{"title":
      "10 Tips for Better Code Reviews",
      "main_image":{"id":"...",
        "path":"uploaded-url"},
      "type":"post"}' \
    -i "wordpress-id"

WordPress + Other Platforms

Publish the same content to WordPress and other platforms in a single command. Each platform gets its own settings.

Terminal

# Cross-post an article to WordPress and Medium
postiz posts:create \
  -c "$(cat article.md)" \
  -s "2025-03-01T09:00:00Z" \
  --settings '{
    "title": "Building Scalable APIs",
    "main_image": {
      "id": "img-id",
      "path": "https://uploads.postiz.com/api-cover.jpg"
    },
    "type": "post"
  }' \
  -i "wordpress-id,medium-id"

# Batch schedule a week of WordPress posts
for day in 1 2 3 4 5; do
  postiz posts:create \
    -c "$(cat posts/day${day}.md)" \
    -s "2025-03-0${day}T08:00:00Z" \
    --settings '{"title":"Day '"$day"' Tips","type":"post"}' \
