External services
This plugin connects to Kitful, the service that writes and improves your content. A Kitful account is required for the plugin to do anything.
When the plugin contacts Kitful. Only when an administrator clicks Connect to Kitful on the plugin settings screen. Your browser is then redirected to Kitful carrying your site URL, the plugin REST base URL, and a short-lived connect token, so Kitful can establish the connection for this site. The plugin sends nothing on a schedule and reports no analytics, usage telemetry, or tracking data.
When Kitful contacts your site. Kitful calls the REST endpoints this plugin registers, authenticated with the site secret. Those requests can:
- Create a post from an article you published in Kitful, or update the post it created earlier if you publish that same article again. The request may include the article HTML, its title, slug and excerpt, an SEO title and description, a canonical URL, a language code, tags, and a featured image URL.
- Update an existing post that is already on your site. When you approve an improvement in Kitful, the request can replace that post’s title, body content, and SEO meta description. Whenever the title or body changes, the plugin saves the previous version as a WordPress revision first, so you can compare or restore it from the post editor. That relies on revisions being enabled for the post, which is the WordPress default but can be switched off. The post’s URL, status, author, categories, tags, featured image, publish date, and SEO title are never changed.
- Read back a small amount of status information so Kitful can show whether the site is connected.
Updating posts Kitful did not create is off by default. Kitful may always update a post it published itself. To let it update a post you or someone else wrote, turn on Allow Kitful to update posts it did not create in Settings -> Kitful. Every update is also checked against the WordPress capabilities of the account named in Default author. Choose a low-privileged account there and Kitful can never edit a post that account could not edit by hand. Left unset, that check runs against an administrator, so the setting above is what limits Kitful on a default install.
If an article includes a featured image URL, WordPress makes an outbound request to that image host to download the image into the local Media Library.
