WordPress plugin integration
Connect a WordPress site to Robomap, install the plugin, and embed contact and directory shortcodes.
What it does
Robomap can connect a business WordPress site to:
- Verify the site with a WordPress Application Password (optional, stored encrypted)
- Issue or rotate a Robomap API key for the Robomap WordPress plugin
- Receive contact / technician request leads from the plugin
- Expose a business directory snippet for the listing widget
Connect in Robomap
- Sign in and go to Account → Integrations → WordPress.
- Enter your WordPress site URL.
- Optionally add a WordPress Application Password (username + application password from WordPress Admin → Users → Profile → Application Passwords).
- Generate a Robomap API key on connect (shown once) and paste it into the plugin under Settings → Robomap.
- Click Connect, then optionally Test connection.
Install the plugin
- Download
robomap.zipfrom the robomap-wordpress releases. - In WordPress: Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin → upload → Activate.
- Go to Settings → Robomap.
- Paste the API base URL shown on the Robomap WordPress integration page and your API key.
- Click Test connection.
Embeds
| Feature | Shortcode | Gutenberg block |
|---|---|---|
| Request a technician / contact form | [robomap_contact] | Robomap → Contact form |
| Business directory card | [robomap_directory] | Robomap → Business directory |
Leads from the form appear under Account → Integrations → WordPress → Leads.
[robomap_contact]
[robomap_directory]Troubleshooting
- Plugin test fails — confirm the API base URL and key match Robomap; rotate the key if it was lost (plaintext is shown only once).
- Application Password rejected — use an application password, not the main WP login password; ensure the REST API is reachable at
/wp-json/. - No leads — place the contact shortcode on a published page and submit a test form.
