OrganicStack Publisher provides a comprehensive REST API for automated WordPress content publishing. It enables external applications (including OrganicStack) to publish posts, manage media, handle categories and tags, create authors, and manage content programmatically through a secure API key authentication system.

Key Features

  • REST API Endpoints – Complete set of REST API endpoints for WordPress content management
  • API Key Authentication – Secure API key-based authentication instead of WordPress application passwords
  • Post Publishing – Publish single posts or bulk publish multiple posts at once
  • Media Management – Upload images via base64 or URL with automatic optimization
  • Category & Tag Management – Get, create, and manage categories and tags
  • Author Management – Create authors and manage author profiles with custom avatars
  • SEO Support – Built-in support for Yoast SEO and RankMath meta fields
  • Custom Meta Fields – Support for custom post meta fields
  • CORS Support – Built-in CORS handling for cross-origin requests
  • Site Information – Get detailed site information including WordPress version, PHP version, and more

Security Features

  • API key authentication with secure key generation
  • Input sanitization and validation on all endpoints
  • Proper permission checks for all operations
  • Secure file upload handling

Data Integrity (Multi-Tenant) – CRITICAL

  • Author avatars are time-consuming to create. They MUST NEVER be removed by a plugin update.
  • This plugin ONLY manages OrganicStack avatars (organicstack_avatar_id, organicstack_created).
  • We NEVER delete, remove, or modify any author/avatar data from WordPress or other plugins.
  • Gravatar, Simple Local Avatars, User Avatar, and all other avatar systems are UNTOUCHED.
  • See AVATAR_POLICY.md – violating this causes hundreds of lost avatars and customer complaints.
