WordPress.com Connect Examples

Code Examples for Implementing WordPress.com Connect

Instructions

These examples require minor changes to get working. The full instructions for getting a PHP app running are on developer.wordpress.com.

These instructions assume you know how to run a website for your chosen framework: PHP (start a webserver), Node.js (run npm install), etc.

1. Log in to WordPress.com
2. Create a new WPCC application: developer.wordpress.com/apps/. You can change these settings at any time.
3. Adjust the following values (in the proper config file) to match the ones in your WPCC application:
   • Client ID
   • Client Secret
   • Login URL
   • Redirect URL
4. Start your server and log in.
5. Profit!

Storing and using the access token is an exercise left for the developer.
