SoMePoster can publish videos to your self-hosted WordPress site through the Create Video Post tool. Make sure your WordPress site is already connected in SoMePoster and that it allows video uploads.
Go to Create Video Post
Open SoMePoster and click Create Video Post from the left menu.
Select WordPress
At the top of the Create Video Post page, select WordPress as one of the platforms.
Select the Correct WordPress Account
Choose the self-hosted WordPress account you want to publish to.
Select the Correct WordPress Site
Choose the self-hosted WordPress site where the video post should be published.
Upload Your Video
Click the video upload area and select a video from your computer. Wait until the upload reaches 100%.
Add a Title
Enter the post title. This will be used as the WordPress post title.
Write Your Post Content
Write the post content in the editor. You can add normal text, paragraphs, links, and hashtags if needed. SoMePoster will upload the video to your WordPress media library and include it in the post.
Optional: Edit Content Per Platform
If you're posting to multiple platforms, turn on Edit Content Per Platform and write a WordPress-specific title or post body.
Choose Post Now or Schedule
Post Now publishes immediately. Schedule lets you choose a future date and time.
Publish the Post
Click Publish or Queue. SoMePoster will upload the video and create the post on the selected WordPress site.
Check the Result in My Posts
Go to My Posts to see the WordPress delivery status.

If WordPress publishes the post successfully, SoMePoster will show the final post URL. If it fails, common causes include a disconnected account, wrong site URL, a missing WordPress application password, a server upload limit, an nginx/PHP upload size limit, an unsupported video file, or the video file being too large.
