Subsync

Bring your Substack to your WordPress site.

Subsync automatically imports your Substack posts into WordPress, making them searchable, discoverable, and part of your website. Perfect for Substack writers who want to maintain a presence on their own domain.

Why Subsync?

Own Your Content
Keep a backup of your posts on your WordPress site. If you ever decide to move platforms, you’ll have all your content ready to go.

Improve Discoverability
Make your posts searchable on Google and accessible to readers who prefer your website over email subscriptions.

Grow Your Audience
Give readers multiple ways to find and engage with your content. Your website visitors can browse your entire archive without needing to subscribe.

Set It and Forget It
Once configured, Subsync runs automatically. New posts appear on your site within 24 hours of publication.

How It Works

1. Install and activate the plugin
2. Enter your RSS feed URL (e.g., yourname.substack.com/feed)
3. Run the initial sync to import your existing posts
4. Add the [sstack_posts] shortcode or Gutenberg block to any page
5. Your posts now display on your WordPress site!

New posts are automatically synced daily (or weekly, your choice). Manual sync is always available if you want to update immediately after publishing.

Display Options

Shortcode Usage:
[sstack_posts] — Show all posts (default 10, recommended)
[sstack_posts count=”5″] — Show 5 most recent posts
[sstack_posts orderby=”title” order=”ASC”] — Sort alphabetically

You can also use [subsync_posts] or [substack_posts] (backwards compatibility).

Gutenberg Block:
Use the “Subsync Posts” block in the editor with live preview and visual controls for number of posts, sorting, and ordering.
