Export Google Docs to WordPress Newspack Fields

Docswrite supports exporting your Google Docs content directly to WordPress Newspack fields, making it easy to publish and optimize your articles for digital newsrooms right from your document.

How Newspack Integration Works

When exporting a Google Doc, Docswrite detects your Newspack fields and allows you to map content from your document to those fields. This enables you to:

  • Set headline, excerpt, and byline directly from your Google Doc
  • Populate Newspack-specific fields such as “Article Subtitle” or “Featured Image”
  • Automate structured content population for every post
  • Eliminate manual copy-paste into Newspack fields in WordPress

Step 1: Set Up Newspack on Your WordPress Site

  1. Install and activate the Newspack plugin.
  2. Configure your newsroom and article settings in the Newspack dashboard.

Step 2: Connect Your WordPress Site to Docswrite

Follow the WordPress integration guide to connect your site via API or plugin.

Step 3: Map Google Doc Content to Newspack Fields

  1. In the Docswrite dashboard, select your Google Doc(s) to export.

  2. In the export settings, you’ll see a section for Newspack fields.

  3. Docswrite will automatically fetch the available Newspack fields for your post type.

  4. Map each Newspack field to a section or property from your Google Doc, such as:

    • Headline: Map to your document title or a custom heading.
    • Excerpt: Map to a summary or custom paragraph.
    • Byline: Map to an author field or text in your doc.
    • Article Subtitle: Map to a subheading or custom field.
    • Featured Image: Map to an image in your doc.

Step 4: Publish!

Click Publish to WordPress. Docswrite will create a new post (or update an existing one) and populate all mapped Newspack fields automatically.
