This plugin connects your WordPress site to your AiM account and brings those posts in as <strong>drafts you review<\/strong> before publishing.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>Why a plugin?<\/strong> The plugin connects <em>outbound<\/em> from your site to AiM, so it works even when your site blocks inbound REST requests \u2014 for example when it's behind Cloudflare or a firewall, or on hosts where Application Passwords aren't available. You do <strong>not<\/strong> need a WordPress Application Password to use it.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>How it works<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<ol>\n<li>In your AiM account, open Brand System \u2192 Connections \u2192 WordPress and copy your Connect Code.<\/li>\n<li>Install and activate this plugin, go to Settings \u2192 AiM Blog Engine, and paste the code.<\/li>\n<li>That's it. New posts arrive automatically as drafts on a schedule; review and publish when you're ready.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n<p>Posts always arrive as <strong>drafts<\/strong> \u2014 nothing is published to your live site automatically.<\/p>\n\n<h3>External service<\/h3>\n\n<p>This plugin connects to the AiM Blog Engine service (operated by AI Marketing Academy) to receive the blog posts you generate there. This connection is required for the plugin to function.<\/p>\n\n<ul>\n<li><strong>What is sent to AiM:<\/strong> your site URL, the Connect Code you paste (once, to link the site), the plugin version, and \u2014 after each post is imported \u2014 the resulting local post ID, URL, and status (so your AiM dashboard can show where the post is).<\/li>\n<li><strong>What is received from AiM:<\/strong> the blog posts queued for this site (title, content, excerpt, optional slug and featured-image URL). Content is stored as post data only; no code is executed.<\/li>\n<li><strong>When:<\/strong> only after you connect (paste your Connect Code).
