Publishing Articles

Publishing sends your article directly to your connected website with all content, formatting, images, and SEO metadata intact.

Prerequisites

Before publishing, ensure you have:

1. A connected integration — WordPress, Webflow, Shopify, Framer, or Ghost
2. Field mapping configured — Your CMS fields mapped to Lovarank fields
3. A generated article — Content must be created before publishing

How to Publish

From the Article View

1. Open your article from Content History
2. Scroll to the Integrations section
3. Find your target platform
4. Click Publish

Publish Options

Depending on your integration settings, you can:

• Publish immediately — Article goes live right away
• Save as draft — Creates the post but doesn't make it public

Publishing to Multiple Platforms

If you have multiple integrations connected:

1. Each integration appears separately in the Integrations panel
2. Click Publish on each platform where you want the article
3. Each platform receives its own copy

This is useful if you maintain blogs on multiple platforms or want to syndicate content.

What Gets Published

When you publish, Lovarank sends:

Element	Where It Goes
Title	Post title field
Content	Main content/body field (with HTML formatting)
Featured Image	Cover/featured image field
Meta Description	SEO description field
Slug	URL/permalink field

Exact field mapping depends on your CMS and how you've configured the integration.

After Publishing

View Published Article

Click the external link icon next to a published integration to open your live article in a new tab.

Republishing Updates

If you edit an article after publishing:

1. Make your changes in the editor
2. Save the changes
3. Click Republish on your integration
4. Updates push to your live article

The URL stays the same—only the content updates.

Publication Status

The Integrations panel shows:

• Not yet published — Article hasn't been sent to this platform
• Last published [date] — When the article was last pushed

Troubleshooting Publishing

"No Integrations" Message

You need to connect at least one platform:

1. Go to Integrations in the sidebar
2. Click Create Integration
3. Follow the setup steps for your platform

Publishing Failed

Common causes:

• Connection expired — Reconnect your integration in settings
• Permission issues — Verify you have publishing rights on your CMS
• Field mapping incomplete — Check that all required fields are mapped
• CMS limits reached — Your platform may have item limits

Images Not Appearing

If images are missing or broken:

• Verify your integration maps the image field
• Check your CMS accepts the image format
• Try re-uploading images directly to your CMS
• Ensure images are under your platform's size limits

Formatting Issues

If content looks wrong on your site:

• Check your CMS theme's styling for blog posts
• For Webflow: Add table CSS if tables appear unstyled
• Verify your content field is set to "Rich Text" type

Platform-Specific Notes

WordPress

Articles publish to your Posts with the category you specified during setup. SEO metadata works with Yoast, Rank Math, and other SEO plugins.

Webflow

Content publishes to your specified CMS Collection. You may need to manually publish your Webflow site for changes to go live.

Shopify

Articles go to your selected blog within Shopify. Make sure you have a blog created before publishing.

Framer

Framer requires syncing from within Framer itself. Content appears in your CMS collection, then sync using the Lovarank plugin in Framer.

Ghost

Articles publish directly to your Ghost blog with full formatting and images.
