Brasth

Brasth Document Sync for Google Docs helps editorial teams use Google Docs as the source of truth while publishing clean WordPress content. Site owners provide their own Google OAuth web client, each WordPress user connects their own Google account, and authorized users can browse accessible Google Docs, link a document to a post or page, and sync content into WordPress.
The plugin exports Google Docs as HTML ZIP packages, imports embedded images into the WordPress Media Library, rewrites image URLs, sanitizes the resulting HTML, and converts common document structures to Gutenberg block markup. If Google blocks a large HTML ZIP export, Brasth Document Sync retries through the Google Docs API fallback before changing post content.
Features include:
<ul>
<li>Self-managed Google OAuth setup wizard.</li>
<li>Server-side Google Drive document browser for My Drive and shared drives.</li>
<li>Advanced Google Docs URL and raw file ID linking.</li>
<li>Background sync through WP-Cron with source status and diagnostic logs.</li>
<li>One-way Google Docs to WordPress sync for posts, pages, and enabled public custom post types.</li>
<li>Media import for images exported from Google Docs.</li>
<li>Gutenberg block markup for common headings, paragraphs, lists, tables, and images.</li>
<li>Uninstall cleanup for settings, encrypted user tokens, and scheduled events.</li>
</ul>
<h4>External Services</h4>
Brasth Document Sync connects to Google services only after a site administrator saves a self-managed Google OAuth client ID and client secret and a WordPress user connects their Google account.
This plugin sends requests to these Google services:
<ul>
<li>Google OAuth 2.0 endpoints, to authorize a user’s Google account and refresh access tokens.</li>
<li>Google Drive API, to list visible Google Docs, shared drives, folders, document metadata, and HTML ZIP exports.</li>
<li>Google Docs API, to read document structure when the large-document fallback is needed.</li>
</ul>
Data sent to Google can include OAuth client details supplied by the site owner, OAuth authorization codes, refresh-token requests, connected-user access tokens, Drive file IDs, folder IDs, shared-drive IDs, search text entered in the Drive browser, pagination tokens, and document export/read requests.
Data received from Google can include the connected Google account email address, OAuth tokens, Google Docs titles, metadata, modified time, version identifiers, document export content, and image content URLs needed to import media into WordPress.
Google’s terms and privacy documents apply to these services:
<ul>
<li>Google Privacy Policy: https://policies.google.com/privacy</li>
<li>Google API Services User Data Policy: https://developers.google.com/terms/api-services-user-data-policy</li>
<li>Google APIs Terms of Service: https://developers.google.com/terms</li>
</ul>
Brasth Document Sync does not send Google data to a Brasth Document Sync vendor-hosted service in this release.
<h3>Privacy</h3>
Brasth Document Sync stores site-level Google OAuth client settings, encrypted per-user Google tokens, connected Google account email addresses, linked Google document metadata, source sync status, diagnostic sync events, and imported attachment metadata in the WordPress database.
During document browsing and sync, Brasth Document Sync communicates with Google OAuth, Google Drive API, and Google Docs API as described in the External Services section. Imported Google Docs images are stored in the WordPress Media Library. Synced WordPress posts and imported media remain on the site until a user with sufficient permission changes or deletes them.
Uninstall removes plugin settings, encrypted user Google tokens, and scheduled cron events. Linked post metadata is retained by default; define <code>DOCSYNC_WP_FULL_UNINSTALL</code> or return true from the <code>docsync_wp_full_uninstall</code> filter to remove Brasth Document Sync post metadata. Synced posts and imported media are not deleted automatically.
<h3>Source And Build Instructions</h3>
Human-readable frontend source is included in <code>resources/</code>. Built assets are included in <code>build/</code>.
To rebuild the admin assets from source:
<ol>
<li>Install PHP dependencies with <code>composer install</code>.</li>
<li>Install frontend dependencies with <code>pnpm install --frozen-lockfile</code>.</li>
<li>Build assets with <code>pnpm build</code>.</li>
</ol>
The build uses Vite and writes <code>build/manifest.json</code>, <code>build/manifest.post-sync.json</code>, and hashed CSS/JS assets. Runtime React is provided by WordPress through <code>wp-element</code>.

PostNext turns your WordPress blog into a hands-off content engine.
You set up a content plan once in the PostNext app — start date, duration, posting cadence, language, and competitive intent — and the AI researches, writes, and ships articles to your WordPress site for the whole run. No copy-paste, no manual scheduling, no batch-generate-and-pray.
<h4>Plan it once, ship it daily</h4>
<ul>
<li>Multi-day content plans — choose 7 days, 14 days, 30 days, or “Until I stop”. Set a start date and PostNext keeps the pipeline flowing.</li>
<li>Publish hour window (UTC) — pick the hour range when posts should go live (e.g. 08–19 UTC). Each article publishes at a random minute inside the window, so your blog cadence reads as human, not bot.</li>
<li>Content language — write natively in your audience’s language; not machine-translated from English.</li>
<li>Auto-publish to WordPress — publish posts automatically when generated, or leave off to land them as drafts for review.</li>
<li>Auto-promote on social media — create social posts to promote each blog post (managed in the PostNext app).</li>
<li>Competitor domains (optional) — enter competitor websites to discover content gaps. One domain per line, max 10. PostNext finds keywords and topics they rank for and you don’t, then writes content to close the gap.</li>
</ul>
<h4>What the plugin does inside WordPress</h4>
<ul>
<li>Receives articles from PostNext via a secure REST API</li>
