Opis
Rank Authority is a secure WordPress plugin that enables seamless integration between your WordPress site and the Rank Authority Dashboard. It provides a REST API endpoint for publishing, updating, and deleting blog posts directly from your dashboard.
New in 1.0.14: Token reset functionality is now available to all administrators with manage_options capability, not just the plugin owner. This provides better flexibility for team environments where multiple administrators need to manage the connection token.
Key Features
- Secure Token-Based Authentication: Uses Bearer token authentication for secure API access
- Publish Posts: Create new blog posts directly from the Rank Authority Dashboard
- Update Posts: Modify existing published posts with new content
- Delete Posts: Remove posts from your WordPress site
- SEO Script Injection: Automatically injects SEO tracking scripts into your site header
- Owner Controls: Token owner can manage visibility and regenerate tokens
- HTTPS Required: All API requests require HTTPS for security
How It Works
- Install and activate the plugin

Najczęściej zadawane pytania
-
How do I get my connection token?
-
After installing the plugin, navigate to WordPress Admin Rank Authority. Your unique token will be displayed on the settings page.
-
Is my site secure with this plugin?
-
Yes! The plugin uses Bearer token authentication and requires HTTPS for all API requests. Only users with the token can access the API endpoints.
-
Can I regenerate my token?
-
Yes, any administrator with manage_options capability can regenerate the token from the plugin settings page. This will invalidate the old token. Token reset is no longer restricted to the plugin owner only.
-
What happens if I disconnect?
-
When you disconnect from the Rank Authority Dashboard, the website_id will be removed and SEO scripts will stop being injected into your site.
-
Can multiple users connect to the same site?
-
The plugin supports site-level connection. The last user to connect will overwrite the previous website_id. For team collaboration, consider using a shared account.
