It is built for site owners and teams who manage content in SEO Mason and want a reliable way to send finished articles, images, categories, tags, and SEO details to their WordPress site. The plugin works as a secure publishing bridge. It does not generate content inside WordPress and it does not require sharing a WordPress administrator password with SEO Mason. A site administrator connects the site with a one-time connection key, chooses which local WordPress user should publish content, and can test the connection from the WordPress admin area. #### Features * Direct WordPress publishing – Create or update posts from approved SEO Mason content. * Secure site connection – Connect with a one-time bridge key instead of WordPress account credentials. * Author control – Choose the WordPress user that published articles should use. * WordPress block support – Publish article content as WordPress blocks by default, with an HTML compatibility option. * Media handling – Save SEO Mason article images to the WordPress media library and place them in the article. * Categories and tags – Apply WordPress categories, tags, and slugs from the publishing workflow. * SEO metadata support – Save article SEO details and work alongside supported SEO plugins where available. * Multilingual publishing support – Accept language metadata for sites that use compatible multilingual workflows. * Admin connection tools – View connection status, run a test connection, disconnect, or regenerate the bridge connection. #### How It Works 1. Create or open your site connection in SEO Mason. 2. Install and activate SEO Mason Bridge in WordPress. 3. Open Settings, SEO Mason Bridge. 4. Paste the one-time connection key from SEO Mason. 5. Choose the WordPress user articles should publish as. 6. Run Test connection. 7. Publish approved content from SEO Mason to WordPress. SEO Mason sends content to this plugin only after the site has been connected and an authorized publishing action is performed from SEO Mason. ### Security Notes SEO Mason Bridge is designed so you do not need to share WordPress account credentials with SEO Mason. Protected publishing requests are verified before content is saved. The plugin also checks that a valid publish user has been selected and that the selected user has the required WordPress permissions. Saved connection secrets are not displayed again after setup. ### External services This plugin connects WordPress to the SEO Mason service at https://seomason.com/. SEO Mason is a separate SaaS platform used to plan, create, manage, and publish SEO content. An SEO Mason account is required to generate the connection key and use the publishing service. The plugin does not send outbound requests to SEO Mason. After an administrator installs the plugin and pastes a connection key from SEO Mason, the SEO Mason service can send secure HTTPS requests to this site’s WordPress REST API when the site owner chooses to test the connection or publish content. Those requests may include article titles, slugs, excerpts, article content, category choices, tag names, image files, image details, structured data, language details, and SEO metadata. The plugin validates the request and creates or updates WordPress content locally using WordPress APIs. SEO Mason terms and privacy information are available at https://seomason.com/terms and https://seomason.com/privacy. ### Privacy This plugin stores connection details, publish-user settings, publishing format preferences, and recent publish status in this WordPress site’s database. The plugin does not track visitors, does not add analytics scripts, does not place front-end tracking cookies, and does not send outbound requests to SEO Mason. After connection, SEO Mason may send publishing requests to this WordPress site that contain content needed for publishing, including article text, metadata, taxonomy choices, image data, image metadata, and language metadata. The plugin validates those requests and stores the resulting WordPress posts, post meta, taxonomy terms, and media attachments locally. Uninstalling the plugin removes the plugin’s stored connection options and transient nonce/idempotency records. It does not delete published posts, pages, media attachments, post meta, categories, or tags that were created through normal WordPress publishing APIs. ## Installation 1. Install SEO Mason Bridge from the WordPress plugin directory, or upload the plugin zip from SEO Mason. 2. Activate the plugin. 3. In WordPress admin, open Settings, SEO Mason Bridge. 4. Paste the one-time connection key from SEO Mason. 5. Choose the existing WordPress user articles should publish as. 6. Run Test connection. 7. Return to SEO Mason and publish approved content to this WordPress site. ## FAQ ### Does this plugin generate articles by itself?
