Choose which plugins power your app

Connecting your site tells AppNatively where your content lives. This step tells it which plugin to actually use for each feature – useful if your site runs more than one plugin that could fill the same role.

Before you start

Your website connection needs to already show “Connected” – see Connect your website to AppNatively if you haven’t done that yet.

Steps

1. Find the WordPress Plugins card

Once your connection is verified, a second card labeled WordPress Plugins appears next to your connection card on the same page.

2. Review the categories

This card lists categories – for example, “Ecommerce” – pulled live from whichever plugins are active on your connected site.

3. Pick a plugin for each category

For each category, choose which active plugin your app should pull from. If your site runs WooCommerce for products, for instance, you’d select it here.

4. Save your selection

Click Save Configuration on this card. It’s a separate save from the connection card above it

  • saving one doesn’t save the other.
