Integrations & CMS Sync

Pendium publishes to your site first. If you also run a blog on WordPress, Webflow, or Ghost, you can connect it so posts mirror there automatically — your site stays the primary home, and your existing blog stays in sync.

This is optional and additive. If your site already is your blog, skip it entirely — publishing works the same with no CMS connected.

If you'd rather render the content with your own code than mirror posts into a CMS, your site can read every published page and post from Pendium and serve them itself. See Use your own front end.

Connecting a CMS

Connect from the Integrations screen (or the "Mirror to your existing blog" option in Site → Manage → Hosting):

• WordPress — enter your site URL. Pendium detects whether it's self-hosted or WordPress.com. Self-hosted uses a username + application password; WordPress.com connects via a sign-in redirect.
• Webflow — connect with Webflow, then pick the site and CMS collection to publish into and map the fields (title, body, slug, excerpt, featured image).
• Ghost — enter your Ghost admin URL and an Admin API key (created in Ghost under Settings → Integrations).

Once connected, the integration shows up with its status and an auto-publish toggle. Opening it checks the connection live: Pendium signs in with the saved access and tells you it's working, what's left to pick, or that the access was revoked and needs reconnecting. Click Check again any time. Google, Facebook & Instagram and your domain get the same check.

How mirroring works

• Auto-mirror on — every post you publish to your site Feed is also published to that CMS automatically.
• Auto-mirror off — posts publish to your site only; you can push an individual post to the CMS by hand later.

When a post mirrors, Pendium converts it to the platform's native format (markdown → HTML for WordPress and Ghost; field-mapped for Webflow), uploads the hero image, and carries over the excerpt and tags. Each post tracks its per-platform sync status, so you can see what published where.

Site-first, always

The site is the primary destination by design:

• No CMS connected? Publishing works — posts go to your site.
• CMS connected, auto-mirror off? Posts go to your site; mirror on demand.
• CMS connected, auto-mirror on? Posts go to your site and your CMS in one step.

You never have to choose between the site and your blog — the site is where AI agents read and cite you, and the CMS mirror keeps your human-facing blog current at the same time.
