# Integrations

Connect your website platform so Adaptify can publish approved articles automatically. See every CMS we support and where to set each one up.

## Integrations & one-click publishing

An integration connects Adaptify to your website so approved articles publish straight to your site with **one click** — no copy-pasting, formatting, or manual uploads. This page is the overview: how publishing works, every platform you can connect, and where to set each one up.

### The setup steps live in the app

The exact, always up-to-date setup instructions for each platform appear inside Adaptify — open the site's One-Click Content settings and select your platform. This page covers which platforms are supported and how each connects. WordPress, which has the most options, has its own dedicated guide.

### How one-click publishing works

Once a website is connected, Adaptify can push a finished article — title, body, images, internal links, and metadata — directly into your site as a **draft or published post**. You stay in control of approvals: nothing publishes until the article reaches the publish step in your workflow.

There are two ways Adaptify connects to a website:

- **Plugin-based publishing** — used for WordPress. You install a custom plugin on the site, which opens a secure connection for Adaptify to publish through.
- **Editor-based publishing** — used for platforms like Wix, Squarespace, and Shopify. There is no plugin; instead you fill in an integration form with the details for that platform.

- Each site has its own integration. You connect one platform per website.
- You set the integration up once. After that, every approved article for that site publishes with a single click.

### Where to set up an integration

One-click publishing lives in **Website Settings** under the **One-Click Content** tab. You will usually reach it from the Enable One-click Publishing item on the dashboard to-do list, or directly from **Website Settings** for the site you want to connect.

- Open the site, go to Website Settings, then the One-Click Content tab.
- Use the **platform dropdown** to choose the platform your website runs on.
- Selecting a platform reveals that platform's **integration details** — the specific setup steps and notes for connecting it.

### Changing the platform later

Picked the wrong platform, or moved your site to a new one? Just reset the integration and choose again from the dropdown.

## Supported platforms

These are the platforms available in the One-Click Content dropdown. WordPress connects with a **custom plugin**; every other platform connects through **editor-based publishing** — you fill in a short integration form. Select a platform in settings to see its specific setup steps.

| Platform | How it connects |
| --- | --- |
| WordPress | Custom plugin — the most common setup. See the dedicated WordPress guide. |
| Webflow | Editor-based — fill in the Webflow integration form. |
| Shopify | Editor-based — fill in the Shopify integration form. |
| Duda | Editor-based — fill in the Duda integration form. |
| Ghost | Editor-based — fill in the Ghost integration form. |
| HubSpot CMS | Editor-based — fill in the HubSpot integration form. |
| Squarespace | Editor-based — fill in the Squarespace integration form. |
| Wix | Editor-based — fill in the Wix integration form. |
| Other platform | Not listed? Select Other Platform and follow the instructions to give Adaptify access.

## WordPress setup & edge cases

Plugin install, white-label, publishing settings, and troubleshooting — the full WordPress reference.

### Editor-based publishing

Platforms without a plugin — such as Wix, Squarespace, and Shopify — use **editor-based publishing**. Instead of installing a plugin, you fill in an **integration form**, and Adaptify publishes through that platform's own editor.

- Select the platform in the One-Click Content dropdown.
- The platform's integration form appears with the exact fields and steps it needs.
- Fill in the form and save. Once connected, articles publish to that platform with one click.

### Follow the on-screen instructions

Each platform's form includes its own setup notes and links. After you select a platform, follow the instructions shown there — they are specific to how that platform connects.

### Other platforms

If your platform is not in the dropdown, choose **Other Platform**. Adaptify can still publish for you once we have access to the part of the site that creates blog posts or articles.

- Open the One-Click Content settings, select Other Platform, and follow the instructions shown there to give Adaptify access.
- You can also share the form link with your client so they can grant access themselves.

## Integration FAQ

**Do I need to connect a platform to use Adaptify?**

No, but it is strongly recommended. Without an integration you would publish articles manually. Connecting your platform unlocks true one-click publishing.

**Can I change the platform after I have set it up?**

Yes. Reset the integration and choose a different platform from the dropdown.

**Will articles publish automatically without my approval?**

No. One-click publishing means publishing is a single action you take once an article is approved. Your approval workflow still applies.

## A proper CMS is a must

Before connecting anything, make sure your website runs on a proper **content management system (CMS)** with robust blog and SEO capabilities. This is **not optional** — it is the foundation that everything else depends on.

Website platforms without strong blog and SEO features **fail to index well on Google** and are **far more time-consuming to manage**. Without proper article structure, clean URLs, metadata, and schema support, even great content struggles to rank — and you end up fighting the platform instead of publishing.

- **Strong blog support** — proper posts, categories, tags, authors, and clean, editable URLs.
- **SEO controls** — editable titles, meta descriptions, and schema (ideally via an SEO plugin like Yoast, Rank Math, or AIOSEO).
- **Reliable publishing** — an API or integration path so articles, images, and metadata publish correctly every time.

## Not sure if your platform is a good fit?

WordPress is the most capable and most common setup, but Adaptify supports many strong platforms — see Supported platforms above. If your current platform lacks proper blog or SEO features, it is worth moving before you invest in content.
