Embed your Broadcast feed into WordPress
Embedding a public feed of your Broadcasts into your WordPress website is similar to displaying your newsletter feed on your Creator Profile or your Kit Landing Pages, only that your Broadcast feed lives on your website. The feed also takes on your WordPress theme's look.
Only public Broadcasts will appear in the feed. Clicking the Broadcasts' titles will lead to their respective public posts on Kit.
To embed your Broadcast feed into your website, open the WordPress post or page in which you want to embed it.

Add a text editor module or widget that implements the TinyMCE Classic Editor to your content. If your page builder doesn't have such a module or widget, you can install a WordPress plugin that offers TinyMCE Classic Editor functionality.
When you add the module or widget, the Kit Broadcasts icon should appear on the TinyMCE Classic Editor toolbar. Like this, for example:
You can then follow the instructions in the "WordPress Classic Editor" section above to complete the setup.
NOTE: While we make every best effort to support all page builders, the Kit WordPress plugin may not be supported on certain page builders.
Publish your Broadcasts as WordPress posts
Whenever you publish new Broadcasts to the web, you can use the WordPress plugin to recreate them as WordPress post drafts—and even automatically publish them if you'd like.
Here's how to set this up.
1. Make your Broadcasts public
Only public Broadcasts will appear in the feed. To make a Broadcast public, enable the Publish to web option when publishing it.
Alternatively, if you've sent your Broadcast without publishing it to the web, make it public by enabling the Public switch on the Broadcast's reports.
2. Enable Broadcast imports
Go to Settings > Kit from the WordPress sidebar. Click the Broadcasts tab at the top, and then select the Enable Automatic Import checkbox.
These settings will appear. Configure them as needed:
Status: Set your imported Broadcasts' status. If you set it to "Published," your Broadcasts will be published on your WordPress website immediately after being imported.
Author: The WordPress user to set as your imported Broadcasts' author.
Category: The post category that your imported Broadcasts should be categorized under. Set this to "None" if you don't want to assign your published Broadcasts to a default category.
Include Thumbnail: Select this checkbox to use your Broadcast's thumbnail as the WordPress post's featured image
Import Images: Whether to import the Broadcasts' images to your WordPress media library for displaying in your WordPress posts. If you disable this option, your WordPress posts' images will be loaded from Kit's servers instead.
Earliest Date: The date from which you want to start importing Broadcasts to WordPress, based on their published date and time
Above the Save Changes button, you'll see a Disable Styles checkbox. Select it if you want your Broadcast content to take on your WordPress theme's design. Otherwise, leave it unchecked to have your Broadcast content keep its email template's design.
When you're done, click Save Changes.
WordPress will import your public Broadcasts starting from the date you've provided for the Earliest Date setting.
Click Posts in the WordPress sidebar to see your imported Broadcasts. If your Broadcast is missing, ensure you've made it public first. Then, go back to the WordPress plugin settings' Broadcasts tab, and click Import now to start a manual import.
If you still don't see your Broadcast, disable the Enable Automatic Import checkbox and save your changes. After that, re-enable the same checkbox, save your changes, and then click Import now and start a manual import again.
You may also need to adjust the Earliest Date setting before re-enabling automatic imports if you had changed your Broadcast's publish date.
NOTE: Running a manual import will not re-import Broadcasts that have already been successfully imported to WordPress.
Publish your WordPress posts as Broadcasts
With the WordPress plugin, you can easily recreate WordPress posts as Broadcasts in Kit for sending to your email list. Here's how.
1. Enable WordPress post exports
Go to Settings > Kit from the WordPress sidebar. Click the Broadcasts tab at the top, and then select the Enable Export Actions checkbox.
You'll see a Disable Styles checkbox below the Enable Export Actions checkbox. Select this checkbox if you want your exported WordPress post content to take on your default email template's design. Otherwise, leave it unchecked to have your post content keep your WordPress theme's design.
Click Save Changes when you're done.
2. Export your WordPress post as a Broadcast
Go to your WordPress dashboard's Posts page. Hover your cursor over any post heading to display a "Create as Kit Broadcast" action below it:
Click it, and your WordPress post will be exported as a Kit Broadcast immediately.
Alternatively, you can export your WordPress post from the WordPress block editor or Classic Editor.
Follow the relevant instructions below:
