## Описание

**4WP Drive** connects a Google Drive folder workflow to WordPress: writers drop
documents in Drive, editors review them in an admin **Inbox**, and approved content
becomes **draft posts** or updates **existing posts and pages**—without copy-paste.

A plugin by [4wp.dev](https://4wp.dev/).

Learn more, workflow details, and comparisons on the plugin page at [4wp.dev/plugin/4wp-drive/](https://4wp.dev/plugin/4wp-drive/).

#### Perfect for

 * **Editorial teams** that draft in Google Docs but publish in WordPress
 * **Agencies** with a shared Drive `incoming/` folder and a review step before 
   publish
 * **Content pipelines** that need structured front-matter (title, slug, categories,
   SEO fields) parsed from the doc header
 * Sites that want **API credentials stored encrypted** and **OAuth handled server-
   side**

#### How it works

 1. Install and activate **4WP Drive**.
 2. Create Google OAuth credentials and connect Drive in **Storage sources**.
 3. Set your Drive **root folder ID**; the plugin uses `incoming/` and `published/`
    subfolders.
 4. Drop a Google Doc (with optional image) into `incoming/` or run **Sync**.
 5. Open **Inbox**  Preview  **Import as Draft**, **Update existing post**, or Reject.
 6. On import, files move to `published/` in Drive.

#### Key features

 * **Google Drive OAuth** — connect an admin Google account; tokens stored encrypted
 * **Folder sync** — scan `incoming/` for new Google Docs and images
 * **Admin Inbox** — preview HTML, import as draft, update an existing post or page,
   or reject
 * **Document template** — front-matter lines before a separator (`---` or `====
   =`) map to post fields; body becomes post content (headings, lists, bold preserved)
 * **Configurable field map** — title, slug, categories, tags, author, dates, SEO
   meta (when supported)
 * **Featured image** — import image from the same Drive subfolder
 * **Update existing content** — search and pick a post or page, then replace its
   content from the Drive document
 * **REST API** + **WP-CLI** `wp forwp-drive sync` for manual sync
 * **Roadmap sources** — GitHub Markdown/MDX and additional storage providers registered
   for future releases

#### Privacy

OAuth tokens and Google API credentials are stored in your WordPress database (encrypted).
Document content is fetched from Google Drive only when an administrator runs sync
or import. No visitor-facing tracking.

**4WP** is our project brand; the letters «WP» appear only as part of that brand
name, not as a reference to WordPress. This plugin is not affiliated with, endorsed,
or sponsored by WordPress.

Plugin overview and FAQ: [4wp.dev/plugin/4wp-drive/](https://4wp.dev/plugin/4wp-drive/)

#### Development

Human-readable PHP source is in the public GitHub repository above. The plugin ZIP
includes `src/` (PSR-4 autoload via `src/Autoload.php` when `vendor/` is absent).
No npm build step — admin scripts ship as plain JS in `assets/`.

Run tests: `composer install && composer test && composer run lint`

### External services

This plugin connects to **Google** services when an administrator configures OAuth
and syncs or imports documents.

#### Google OAuth 2.0

Used to authorize access to the connected Google account’s Drive files.

 * Authorization URL: `https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/v2/auth`
 * Token URL: `https://oauth2.googleapis.com/token`
 * Scope: `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/drive`

When an administrator clicks **Connect Google Drive**, the browser is redirected
to Google to sign in and grant access. WordPress stores refresh and access tokens
encrypted in the site database. Client ID and Client Secret are stored encrypted(
or may be defined in `wp-config.php`).

Google terms: https://policies.google.com/terms
 Google privacy: https://policies.
google.com/privacy

#### Google Drive API

Used to list folders, download Google Docs (export as HTML/DOCX), and move files
after import.

 * API hostname: `https://www.googleapis.com/drive/v3/` (and related export endpoints)

Requests are made **server-side** only when an administrator runs sync, preview,
or import. Document metadata and file content are processed on your server to create
WordPress posts.

Google Drive API terms follow Google Cloud / Google API Services terms linked from
the Google Cloud Console.

## Установка

 1. Upload the plugin to `/wp-content/plugins/4wp-drive/` or install from the Plugins
    screen.
 2. Activate **4WP Drive**.
 3. Open **4WP Drive  Storage sources** (or **Documentation** for the setup guide).
 4. Paste **Client ID** and **Client Secret** from Google Cloud Console  **Save credentials**.
 5. Click **Connect Google Drive**, then enter your Drive **root folder ID** and save
    subfolders.
 6. Use **Inbox** to preview and import documents.

Optional: define `FORWP_DRIVE_GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID`, `FORWP_DRIVE_GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET`,
or `FORWP_DRIVE_OAUTH_REDIRECT_URI` in `wp-config.php`.

## Часто задаваемые вопросы

### Do I need a Google Cloud project?

Yes. Create OAuth 2.0 credentials (Web application), enable the Google Drive API,
and register the redirect URI shown in the plugin Documentation tab.

### What document format is supported?

Google Docs in `incoming/` (single doc or subfolder with doc + image). Front-matter
uses `Label: value` lines before a separator paragraph (`---` or a row of `=` characters).
The rest is post body.

### Are API keys exposed to visitors?

No. OAuth and Drive requests run on the server. Only administrators with `manage_options`
can connect Drive and import.

### Can I lock credentials in wp-config.php?

Yes. Use `FORWP_DRIVE_GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID` and `FORWP_DRIVE_GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET` constants.

### Does it work on local dev (.local / 127.0.0.1)?

Yes. Use the **OAuth redirect (local)** field when Google rejects your site hostname;
register the same loopback URI in Google Cloud Console.

### Can I update an existing post or page instead of creating a draft?

Yes. In **Inbox  Preview**, choose **Update existing post**, search or pick a target,
and confirm. The document content is imported into that post. Use **Import as Draft**
when you want a new post instead.

### What changes when I update an existing post?

The plugin updates **title**, **content**, mapped **categories/tags**, **SEO meta**(
when configured), and **featured image** (when the Drive folder includes an image).
Optional front-matter **date** updates `post_date` when present. The post **slug**
and **status** (published, draft, etc.) stay as they were unless your site or other
plugins change them.

### Which posts can I select to update?

Only posts of the **configured import post type** (for example **Posts** or **Pages**
under **Document template**). Targets must be posts you can edit (`edit_post`). 
Published, draft, pending, private, and scheduled posts are supported. The picker
can suggest a match by document **slug** or **title** before you search.

### Is update mode safe? Will it overwrite without asking?

You must select a target and confirm before import. If the slug or title in the 
document matches an existing post, the plugin may **suggest** that post first—you
still choose explicitly. Always preview the document before updating production 
content.

### Does update mode work with pages and custom post types?

It works with whichever post type you set as the import type in **Document template**.
Switch the import type to **Page** (or another public type with editor support) 
to update pages instead of posts. The target must match that same type.
