The next step involves setting up WordPress as the trigger app in Pabbly Connect. This means that the automation will start whenever a new post is published on your WordPress site. Click on the ‘Add Trigger’ button and select WordPress as your trigger app.

Choose the event ‘New Post Published’ which will initiate the workflow. After selecting the event, click on the ‘Connect’ button to generate a webhook URL, which will connect your WordPress account with Pabbly Connect.

After saving your settings, you are ready to test the connection by creating a new post in WordPress. This step ensures that the automation is functioning correctly.

Now that WordPress is connected to Pabbly Connect, you can set up actions to share your posts on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. Start by adding a new action step for Facebook Pages.

Select the action event ‘Create Page Photo Post’ and connect your Facebook account. After connecting, map the fields such as photo URL and post title from the previous WordPress step to ensure that the right content is shared on your Facebook page.

Repeat this process for Instagram and Twitter by selecting the appropriate action apps in Pabbly Connect and mapping the necessary fields. This ensures that every new post published on WordPress is automatically shared across all selected social media platforms.
