Syndication helps users manage posts across multiple sites. It’s useful when managing posts on different platforms. With a single click you can push a post to more than 100 sites.
Features
- Push syndication – Publish content to multiple WordPress sites simultaneously

Usage
Here’s how it works:
- 01Configure which post types are “pushable”, as well as whether you’d like syndicated posts to be deleted when the master post is deleted.
- 02Register and group your sites into “Sitegroups” in settings.
- 03In the WordPress posting interface, you’ll see a new “Syndication” metabox, with all of your sitegroups listed. Select the sitegroups you want to push to and the post will be automatically syndicated to your other sites when it’s published and updated.
WordPress.com REST API
To push content using the WordPress.com REST API you need to create an application from the WordPress.com Developer Resources site – and you can also generate API tokens directly from the plugin’s settings page.
Fill in the client ID and client secret as displayed on the app page, and click the authorize button to get directed to the authorization page on WordPress.com. Select which site you’d like to push to and click “Authorize”, at which point you’ll be redirected back to your settings page-which will now display the API token, Blog ID, and Blog URL. You can now use this information to register your WordPress.com site.
Using WordPress XML-RPC
To push content using XML-RPC, you’ll need to enable XML-RPC on the destination site and provide the site URL, username, and password.
Note that if you have two-factor authentication enabled on the destination site, you will need to create an application password to use when adding a new site. Using your regular password will not work.
