Description
Forco Connector is the small bridge that lets your Forco assistant create and update Elementor pages on your WordPress site for you.
WordPress core’s REST API cannot write Elementor’s page data (it is protected meta), and Elementor has no public headless create-page API. This plugin closes that gap with a single, narrowly-scoped, authenticated route.
What it does:
- On activation it mints its own private key. Forco reads that key once (using your admin credential only to bootstrap), then stops using your admin credential entirely.
- Every page operation after that uses the plugin’s own scoped key — never your admin login.
- The one write route creates or updates a page with Elementor data only. It is not a general-purpose code or file-write endpoint.
- Before overwriting an existing Elementor page it always backs up the current design first, so a change can be undone.
Privacy and safety:
- The plugin makes no outbound connections and never loads or runs remote code. Forco sends it page data; the plugin only ever receives.
- All requests are authenticated and rate-limited.
- You can deactivate or delete the plugin at any time to revoke access.
External services
This plugin is the site-side half of Forco (https://forco.ai), a paid service that edits your WordPress site for you when you ask it to by email.
The plugin itself makes no outbound network connections and does not send your data anywhere on its own. Instead, once you connect your site to Forco, Forco’s servers make authenticated requests to your site — through this plugin and the standard WordPress REST API — to read and update content as needed to carry out the changes you request. Nothing happens unless you ask Forco to make a change.
Forco is operated by forco.ai. By connecting your site to Forco you agree to its terms and privacy policy:
- Terms of Service: https://forco.ai/terms
- Privacy Policy: https://forco.ai/privacy
Installation
- Install and activate the plugin (your Forco onboarding does this for you).
- That’s it — Forco retrieves the connector key automatically and starts building pages on request.
FAQ
-
Does this send my data anywhere?
-
No. The plugin never makes outbound requests. It only responds to authenticated requests from Forco.
-
How do I revoke access?
-
Deactivate or delete the plugin. The scoped key is removed on uninstall.

Changelog
0.2.0
- New pages render on Elementor’s full-width canvas by default (theme header and footer kept, theme page-title dropped) so the builder section opens the page cleanly.
- Compiled per-page Elementor CSS is rebuilt after a write, so style changes show immediately instead of staying stale.
- Pages are attributed to the activating administrator rather than to no author.
0.1.0
- Initial release: scoped-key authentication, Elementor page create/update route, pre-overwrite backup, optional menu placement, rate limiting.
