How to use JetEngine with Notion WP Sync?

Notion WP Sync is a powerful tool for importing data from Notion into WordPress. While it is not yet fully compatible with all JetEngine field types, it is possible to use Notion WP Sync with JetEngine by leveraging custom fields and ensuring the field types match.

Step 1: Setting Up JetEngine Custom Fields

Before syncing data, you need to create custom fields in JetEngine and assign the appropriate field slug. Notion WP Sync maps data based on this slug.

1. Go to JetEngine > PostType and click on Add New button to create a new post type .
2. In the Meta Fields section, add the fields you want to sync by clicking on the New Meta Field button.
3. In the field settings, make sure to define a Name/ID (slug) (this will be used for mapping in Notion WP Sync) for each custom field.
4. Save (or update) the post type by clicking on Add/Update Post Type button.

Step 2: Importing with Notion WP Sync to JetEngine Field

Once your JetEngine custom fields are ready, set up your Notion WP Sync connection to import your Notion data correctly.

1. Go to Notion WP Sync > All Connections.
2. Click on Add New Connection button to create a new connection.
3. In the Notion Settings section, fill your Notion integration in the Internal Integration Token field.
4. And select your Notion Base linked to your integration.

Setting Up Your Import

In the Import As… section:

1. In the Import as drop-down, select Post.
2. In the Post Type drop-down, select the JetEngine post type created before.

Field Mapping

In the Field Mapping section:

• Choose an Notion field: in the Notion Field side, select your Airtable fields from the drop-down menu.
• Select a WordPress field, in the Import As drop-down menu:
  • Select basic WordPress fields such as Title, Slug, Category, Featured Image, Taxonomy.
  • Or select Custom Field to map with the JetEngine custom field, and type the slug of JetEngine custom field.

⚠️ Ensure that the field types in Notion match the types of the JetEngine custom fields.

Import and Sync

Once all your connection settings are done:

1. Click on the Publish button in the top-right of the connection.
2. Click on the Sync Now button in the Actions section of your connection to import and sync all your Notion base content into your new custom post type.

Step 3: Viewing the Imported Data in JetEngine

After the import is complete, you can check how the data appears inside your JetEngine-powered custom post type.

1. Go to the WordPress dashboard and open the custom post type you have created by clicking on the menu item corresponding to its name..
2. Open a post to verify that all mapped custom fields have been correctly imported.
3. If you use Elementor or Gutenberg, you can display the JetEngine fields dynamically on the front-end.
