How to link my wordpress blog and my google drive documents

  • [ Moderator note: moved to Fixing WordPress. ]

    Few days back when I was copying a document from Google doc to a new WordPress blog post, and WordPress asked me if I want to setup ‘import from google doc’ to publish documents from google doc easily. I chose no, but now I want to set it up.

    Since I can’t seem to get back the prompt again, I was wondering how can I set it up so, I can write my blog posts on google doc, and then can publish it as a WordPress blog in a more streamlined manner?

    Thank you.

  • Hello,

    I haven’t used this one myself but AutoMattic has created a free add-on for Google Drive called WordPress.com for Google Docs, which can be added to any WordPress.com or Jetpack powered www.remarpro.com site. This allows you to send a draft over but does not allow you to publish to your site directly from the add-on. Much nicer than copying and pasting though!

    The add-on can be found here.

    The help section for the add-on can be found here.

    Yes, I found the plugin while I googling about this, but since it is a 3rd party plugin, I am a bit wary of installing it.

    Since the suggestion to link my wordpress with my google doc show up during when I was creating a blog post – I thought the suggested plugin must be developed by WordPress themselves.

    So is there any plugin developed by WordPress on Chrome Webstore for this? Also should I be wary of installing 3rd party plugin?

    Hi @iamcreasey,

    I do understand you would be wary of giving access to your Google Drive or blog. The good news is that the one above was created by AutoMattic, the parent company of WordPress, WooCommerce etc. Hope that reassures you.

    I have not seen the pop up you saw before but I seems quite likely that as this add on was created by AutoMattic, using this add on would have been the next step.
