Wordpress Content

This is the WordPress content management skill you reach for when you need to publish posts, update pages, upload media, or wrangle categories and menus. It works through WP-CLI over SSH or the REST API when you don't have shell access. The documentation covers the practical scenarios: creating posts from HTML files when content is long, bulk operations, scheduling future posts, setting featured images, managing taxonomies, and updating navigation menus. You also get search and replace commands with dry-run safety, post meta manipulation for custom fields, and export workflows. It assumes you've already got your connection configured, then gives you the exact commands for whatever content operation you're trying to do.

Prerequisites

Working WP-CLI SSH connection or REST API credentials (use wordpress-setup skill)

Workflow

Step 1: Determine the Operation

Task	Best Method
Create/edit single post or page	WP-CLI `wp post create/update`
Bulk create posts	WP-CLI loop or REST API batch
Upload images/media	WP-CLI `wp media import`
Manage categories/tags	WP-CLI `wp term`
Update navigation menus	WP-CLI `wp menu`
Scheduled posts	WP-CLI with `--post_date`
Complex HTML content	Write to temp file, pass to WP-CLI
No SSH access available	REST API with Application Password

Step 2: Create Content

Blog Posts

# Simple post
wp @site post create \
  --post_type=post \
