WordPress Workflow

Documentation for the WordPress-to-researchMTR workflow, from task initiation to editorial review

This page explains how the WordPress plugin, the main platform, and callback delivery should fit together in a production editorial workflow. It is designed as a public-safe documentation layer that supports SEO, partner understanding, and implementation planning.

How the integrated publishing loop should work

1. Configure

Set plugin credentials, callback URL, and publishing defaults so WordPress knows how to reach the researchMTR workflow.

2. Trigger

Initiate content or workflow tasks from the editorial side when a draft, article brief, or publishing job is needed.

3. Return

Receive the completed payload through a validated callback so the CMS can create or update the corresponding post safely.

4. Review

Route content into draft, pending, or review states before final publication so teams keep quality and compliance control.

Operational guidance

Draft-first publishing

Use draft or pending status where editorial review is required. This reduces accidental publication and supports governance.

Token validation

Protect callback endpoints so only trusted workflow completions can create or update content in WordPress.

Structured logging

Record task IDs, callback attempts, and publishing outcomes to make debugging and operational review easier.

Content QA

Validate titles, metadata, and body outputs before publication so the workflow supports quality rather than bypassing it.
