WP Media Sync Documentation
Setup and usage documentation for the WordPress media sync connector and desktop companion app.
In Development
Documentation Coming Soon
WP Media Sync is still being built. This page will become the home for installation, connection, sync workflow, and troubleshooting documentation as the MVP stabilizes.
Planned Guides
Install the WordPress connector
Activate the plugin, confirm REST API availability, and prepare a WordPress Application Password.
Connect the desktop app
Add a WordPress site, store credentials in the OS credential store, and verify the connection.
Choose a local sync folder
Create a local workspace for one WordPress site and understand how sync state is tracked locally.
Review and sync media changes
Upload new files, download remote files, replace attachments, edit metadata, and handle trash decisions.
Expected Setup Flow
Install the connector plugin
The WordPress plugin exposes focused REST endpoints for media list, upload, replacement, deletion, and metadata updates.
Create an Application Password
Use WordPress Application Passwords so the desktop app can authenticate without storing your account password.
Pair the desktop companion app
Enter the site URL, username, and Application Password, then choose the local folder for that site.
Review changes before syncing
The first version is designed around explicit review for uploads, downloads, replacements, metadata edits, and deletes.
