How to publish changes to WordPress

From your BlitzBear dashboard, open an article then click the Publish Changes button.

  • For newly generated articles: Once published, your WordPress post will be created in Draft mode. This includes the WordPress post's title, cover image, excerpt, and content.

  • For optimized existing articles: Once published, your WordPress post will be updated with the list of SEO optimization changes. This includes the WordPress post's title, excerpt, and content.

    • NOTE: BlitzBear will first search for a matching URL slug from your WordPress posts collection, but if none are found then BlitzBear will also search from your WordPress pages collection and update the page accordingly if one is found.

You will see the article's status change to Published from your BlitzBear dashboard.
