Post Forwarder lets you syndicate content from one WordPress site to any combination of destinations with a single click at publish time — or schedule it ahead with the built-in calendar. Configure as many portals as you need and choose per-post which ones receive each article.
Supported Destinations
<ul>
<li>WordPress sites — forwards via the REST API with taxonomy mapping, featured image upload, ACF field support, and duplicate prevention. One-click authorization using WordPress Application Passwords, or enter credentials manually.</li>
<li>LinkedIn — posts as a link-share article card with your excerpt, featured image thumbnail, and hashtags auto-generated from your WordPress post tags. Supports personal profiles and organisation pages. One-click connect — no configuration required.</li>
<li>X (Twitter) — posts the title and post URL as a tweet; the featured image attaches directly on paid API tiers or appears as a link preview card. Connect with your own free X developer app.</li>
</ul>
Plan ahead with the content calendar
Post Forwarder includes a built-in weekly calendar so you can do more than fire-and-forget on publish. Schedule posts to go out to your connected channels at the time that suits you, see everything that’s queued at a glance, and manage upcoming posts across all your WordPress sites, LinkedIn, and X from one screen. Great for keeping a steady publishing rhythm without babysitting the clock.
WordPress forwarding highlights
<ul>
<li>One-click “Save & Connect with WordPress” using the built-in Application Password flow.</li>
<li>Taxonomy mapping with automatic fallback to tags.</li>
<li>Featured image, ACF fields, and custom post types are carried across.</li>
<li>Duplicate prevention so the same post is never forwarded twice.</li>
</ul>
LinkedIn highlights
<ul>
<li>Zero-configuration connect — click “Connect with LinkedIn” and authorize in one step.</li>
<li>Featured image is uploaded directly to LinkedIn and shown as the article thumbnail.</li>
<li>WordPress post tags become LinkedIn hashtags automatically (the tag “my topic” becomes #MyTopic).</li>
<li>Supports personal profiles and organisation pages.</li>
<li>Token expiry is shown in settings, with a reconnect prompt before it lapses.</li>
</ul>
Compatibility
Tested with WordPress 7.0 and PHP 8.3.
<h3>Platform Requirements & Limitations</h3>
<h4>WordPress</h4>
<ul>
<li>The destination site must run WordPress 5.6+ with the REST API enabled (default).</li>
<li>The connecting user must have at least the Editor role on the destination site.</li>
<li>Use “Save & Connect with WordPress” for one-click Application Password authorization, or enter a username and Application Password manually.</li>
</ul>
<h4>LinkedIn</h4>
<ul>
<li>No extra configuration required — one-click connect handles sign-in.</li>
<li>LinkedIn access tokens expire after 60 days. The plugin shows the expiry date and prompts you to reconnect.</li>
<li>For organisation page posts set the Author URN to <code>urn:li:organization:YOUR_ORG_ID</code>. You’ll also need the Community Management API product approved on the LinkedIn app (not needed for personal profile posts).</li>
<li>LinkedIn needs the post URL to be publicly reachable to show an article card. Posts from localhost or <code>.local</code>/<code>.test</code> domains fall back to image-only or text+URL mode.</li>
</ul>
<h4>X (Twitter)</h4>
You need a free X developer account to post tweets. X limits write access per developer app, so each plugin user connects their own app.
Step 1 — Create an X developer account (one-time)
<ol>
<li>Go to <a href="https://developer.x.com" rel="nofollow ugc">developer.x.com</a> and sign in with your X account.</li>
<li>Click Sign up and agree to the terms — your developer account is created instantly.</li>
</ol>
Step 2 — Create an app and get credentials
<ol>
<li>In the <a href="https://console.x.com" rel="nofollow ugc">Developer Portal</a> go to Apps and click Create App.</li>
<li>Give it any name (e.g. “My Post Forwarder”).</li>
<li>Open the app, click Keys & Tokens then User authentication settings then Set up.</li>
<li>Set:
<ul>
<li>App permissions: Read and write</li>
<li>Type of App: Web App, Automated App or Bot</li>
<li>Callback URI: the callback URL shown in the plugin’s X portal settings</li>
<li>Website URL: your site URL</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Click Save and copy the Client ID and Client Secret (the secret is shown only once).</li>
</ol>
Step 3 — Connect in the plugin
<ol>
<li>In Post Forwarder -> Settings -> Connection Configuration, add an X portal.</li>
<li>Enter the Client ID and Client Secret you copied.</li>
<li>Click Save Portals, then click Save & Connect with X.</li>
<li>Authorize the app on X and you are redirected back with a “Connected” badge.</li>
</ol>
Notes: 
* The free tier allows 1,500 tweet writes per month. Each user’s app has its own separate quota. 
* X access tokens are long-lived and refreshed automatically before expiry. 
* Featured images on the free tier appear as link preview cards (public sites only), not as direct attachments. The X Basic plan enables direct image upload.
<h3>External Services</h3>
Post Forwarder only sends data when you choose to connect an account or forward a post — nothing is sent in the background.
To publish to LinkedIn or X (Twitter), the plugin uses a small open-source connection helper to handle the secure sign-in step, then sends the post you’re forwarding (such as its title, link, and image) to the network you connected. WordPress-to-WordPress forwarding talks only to the site you set up.
You stay in control: connect or disconnect any destination at any time, and advanced users can self-host the connection helper. Each network’s handling of the content you send is governed by its own terms:
<ul>
<li>LinkedIn — <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/legal/user-agreement" rel="nofollow ugc">Terms</a> · <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/legal/privacy-policy" rel="nofollow ugc">Privacy</a></li>
<li>X (Twitter) — <a href="https://twitter.com/en/tos" rel="nofollow ugc">Terms</a> · <a href="https://twitter.com/en/privacy" rel="nofollow ugc">Privacy</a></li>
</ul>
<h3>Technical Notes</h3>
Security: 
* OAuth tokens are stored in the WordPress database. Enable at-rest encryption on your host for best protection. 
* Sensitive fields (access tokens, client secrets, passwords) are never echoed back to the browser — submitting a blank field preserves the saved value. 
* All form inputs are sanitized and validated; WordPress nonces protect all forms and OAuth callbacks.
Tested with: 
* WordPress 7.0 
* PHP 8.3
Minimum Requirements: 
* WordPress 5.6+ 
* PHP 7.4+

Post Forwarder

Forward WordPress posts to other WordPress sites, LinkedIn, and X — automatically on publish or scheduled from a built-in content calendar.
