There is a free WordPress plugin that allows merchants to integrate and publish ShopSite products to their WordPress blog. These instructions assume you are signed in to an administrative account for both your ShopSite back office and your WordPress site.

There are two parts to configuring WordPress to work with ShopSite:

Install the ShopSite plugin for WordPress

From the admin section of your WordPress site:

  1. Navigate to Plugins -> Add New
  2. Search for 'ShopSite'
  3. Under the Shopsite plugin, click "Install Now"
  4. Click "OK" on the JavaScript alert to install the plugin
  5. Click "Activate Plugin"

Configure the plugin to work with your ShopSite store

From your ShopSite back office:

  1. Navigate to Merchandising Tools > Social Media > WordPress configuration

On your WordPress site:

  1. Navigate to Settings > ShopSite
  2. Copy the four "Application settings" fields (Client ID, Secret Key for Signing, Authorization Code, and Authorization URL) from ShopSite's back office to the WordPress ShopSite configuration page.

Click "Save settings" and "Save Changes" on the appropriate pages.

Once installed and configured, you can add products to your WordPress pages by clicking the SS icon on the WordPress toolbar. Clicking the icon brings up a menu where containing all of the products created for your ShopSite store.
