WordPress post scheduler
Schedule posts, images to WordPress
Draft once, pick your WordPress channel next to any other network you post to, and set the time. Postauto holds the limit of 100,000 characters (description); 255 characters (title) against your draft, departs every channel at that minute, and tells you what WordPress did with it.
The rules
The WordPress rules Postauto works to
Taken from WordPress's own developer documentation, not from a marketing page.
Count your draft against this limit, and against every other network at the same time. No account needed.
| Content types | Posts, Images |
|---|---|
| Character limit | 100,000 characters (description); 255 characters (title) |
| Media rules | Attachments upload to the media library and are appended to the post; the first image is also set as the featured image |
| Account requirement | An application password from Users, Profile, Application Passwords on your own site |
| Availability | Live |
Network note
Nothing to register and no review: the site has to be on https with the REST API reachable. Self-hosted WordPress, not WordPress.com.
Departure
What happens to a WordPress post
-
In the composer
The 100,000 limit is checked before you schedule
Write once, tick your WordPress account alongside anything else you post to, and the counter runs against 100,000 characters (description); 255 characters (title) while you type. Over the limit means you cannot schedule, not a failure tomorrow morning.
-
On the board
Departures, not a spreadsheet of rows
Scheduled posts line up by time. You see what leaves next, what already departed, and what needs a look, without opening anything.
-
After it leaves
A WordPress result of its own
Every channel reports separately. A WordPress rejection does not stop the other networks, and the network's own error text is shown on the board in plain language.
-
At rest
Credentials encrypted with AES-256-GCM
Your WordPress credentials are encrypted before they reach the database, are never logged in plaintext, and are decrypted only at the moment of publishing.
Per-channel results
You can see what each network did
One post, one row per channel. Departed channels carry a link to the live post; a failed channel carries the network's own error text, so you know whether to fix the wording, the media, or the connection.
Send the same draft to
Tick these next to WordPress in the composer and they all leave at the same time.
WordPress scheduling questions
What can I publish to WordPress with Postauto?
Posts, Images. Attachments upload to the media library and are appended to the post; the first image is also set as the featured image.
What is the WordPress character limit?
100,000 characters (description); 255 characters (title). The Postauto composer checks this limit against every account you select before the post is scheduled, so nothing fails at departure time over length.
What do I need to connect WordPress?
An application password from Users, Profile, Application Passwords on your own site.
Is WordPress scheduling available on Postauto right now?
Yes. WordPress publishing is live for every Postauto account today.
Anything specific to WordPress I should know?
An application password is revocable on its own, so Postauto never holds your account password. The site URL is checked before any request leaves our network, so a connection cannot be pointed at a private address.
Can I post to WordPress and other networks at the same time?
Yes. One composer publishes to any mix of your connected channels, and each network's limits are checked per selected channel. Every channel departs at the same scheduled time.
What happens if a WordPress post fails?
Each channel reports its own result. If WordPress rejects a post, your other selected networks still publish, the post is marked partial, and the board shows a readable error for the failed channel.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. The free plan includes 1 channel · 15 posts a month, no card required.
