Already have a WordPress site? You can show any page you build in Ontraport Pages right on it, using a WordPress plugin called Ontrapages. You set it up once, and then each page takes two quick steps: publish it to WordPress in Ontraport, then add it in WordPress. Let's walk through it. You'll need three things: a page you've already built in Ontraport, administrator access to your WordPress site, and an Ontraport API Key and App ID. First, in Ontraport, click the profile icon, go to Administration, then Advanced Features, and turn on WordPress. Without this, the WordPress option won't show up when you publish. Next, click the profile icon, go to Administration, then Integrations, then Ontraport API Instructions and Key Manager. Click New API Key. If you see an API Application form, fill it out and submit it. Approval takes one to two business days, and then you come back here. Name your key, something like "WordPress site," so you'll know what it's for. Set the contact owner, leave the option boxes unchecked, and click Save. Copy your API Key and App ID, and keep them private. Now log in to WordPress as an administrator. Click Plugins, then Add New. Search for Ontrapages, click Install Now, and then Activate. Two action items appear at the top of the Plugins screen. First, update your permalink settings to use the Post name option, and click Save. Second, add your API Key and App ID, and click Save. That's the one-time setup done. Now for each page. Open it in the Ontraport page editor and click Publish. Choose WordPress, then click Save and Publish. A page only shows up in the plugin after you've published it to WordPress here. One tip. If you're showing a page on WordPress, keep it unhosted in Ontraport. Choose WordPress when you publish, rather than putting it on a domain too. Back in WordPress, click ONTRApages, then Add new. Enter a title, then pick your page from the dropdown labeled "Choose which Ontrapage you would like to use." Click Publish, and your Ontraport page is live on your WordPress site. Ontrapages shows your Ontraport pages. To add Ontraport's tracking script to every other page of your WordPress site, use the PilotPress plugin, available on Plus and above. The tracking script lesson in Getting started shows you how. So: turn on WordPress in Advanced Features, connect Ontrapages with your API Key and App ID, publish your page to WordPress in Ontraport, and add it under ONTRApages. Next up, we'll make your pages personal with page personalization.
