How to connect Notion and WordPress in 5 minutes 

If you’re like me, you probably draft your blog content in Notion first. It’s where ideas live, calendars stay organized, and collaboration happens. But when it’s time to publish, you still have to copy everything into WordPress, fix the formatting, and double-check links and images.

That extra step can slow your workflow down and lead to formatting errors. With Whalesync, you can connect Notion and WordPress in just a few minutes. Once set up, your posts are published into WordPress, directly from Notion to WordPress.

The best part? You can set this up in 5 minutes. Here’s how

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)

How can I sync Airtable and WordPress?

You can connect your Airtable base to your WordPress site in minutes using Whalesync. Once you authorize both apps, you can map the fields from your Airtable base to the corresponding fields in WordPress, such as post content, title, and any custom fields. Turn on the sync, and any changes you make in Airtable will be instantly reflected on your live site, eliminating the need for manual CSV imports.

Can I use Notion as a CMS for WordPress?

Yes. To use Notion as a content management system for WordPress, use Whalesync to connect a Notion database directly to your WordPress posts or pages.

Is it possible to two-way sync WordPress and Google Sheets?

Yes, you can set up a real-time, two-way sync between WordPress and Google Sheets. This means you can manage your website’s content directly from a spreadsheet. For example, if you update a product price in Google Sheets, it instantly updates the product page on your WordPress site. 

How can I bulk update WordPress pages?

For bulk updates, such as changing details across hundreds of product pages or updating event listings, you can manage all the data in a central tool like Airtable or Google Sheets. Perform the updates in the spreadsheet interface, and Whalesync will automatically sync those changes to every corresponding page on your live WordPress site. This saves hours of manual work and prevents errors.

How does the connector handle image syncing between WordPress and other tools?

Yes, the connector automates image syncing. You can add image files to an attachment field in Airtable or an image block in Notion. Whalesync will then automatically upload those images to your WordPress media library and link them to the correct posts or pages, saving you from having to download and re-upload images manually.
