The server-wp-mcp tool is a powerful utility that allows you to interact with WordPress sites programmatically through a command-line interface. This tool is particularly useful for developers and administrators who need to manage WordPress content and functionality through code.<\/p>\n
To use server-wp-mcp, you’ll need:<\/p>\n
1. Node.js installed on your system
\n2. A configuration file (.server-wp-mcp.json) with your WordPress site settings
\n3. A wp-sites.json file containing your site credentials<\/p>\n
The tool requires two main configuration files:<\/p>\n
1. .server-wp-mcp.json:
\n“`json
\n{
\n “wpSitesPath”: “.\/wp-sites.json”
\n}
\n“`<\/p>\n
2. wp-sites.json:
\n“`json
\n{
\n “sitename”: {
\n “URL”: “your-site-url”,
\n “USER”: “your-username”,
\n “PASS”: “your-password”
\n }
\n}
\n“`<\/p>\n
The tool can be used for various tasks such as:
\n– Creating and managing posts
\n– Managing users
\n– Querying content
\n– Updating site settings<\/p>\n
1. Always keep your credentials secure
\n2. Use environment variables when possible
\n3. Test commands in a development environment first
\n4. Keep your Node.js version up to date<\/p>\n
Common issues you might encounter:<\/p>\n
1. “Error: Missing required config values: wpSitesPath”
\n– Solution: Ensure your .server-wp-mcp.json file exists and contains the correct path<\/p>\n
2. Connection timeout errors
