Recent WordPress Posts

Read up to five published WordPress posts, ordered by publication date with the newest first.

Setup

Select your WordPress account in Read published WordPress posts. Configure the site URL, username and application password in the connection. The site must expose the WordPress REST API. In n8n, choose WordPress credentials in Wordpress and run manually.

Each run makes one read request for the first five published posts. It returns complete post objects, including rendered HTML where WordPress provides it. Open Flow also returns the total count and page count from response headers; these values are null if the site omits the headers. An empty site returns an empty posts array.

This template reads one page. It does not collect every post, create content or modify the site. Change the limit and filters in the Action or n8n node to read another selection. A failed request stops the run, with no workflow retry configured.

Changes to the source

• Make the source’s five-post limit and newest-published-post defaults explicit.
• Expose posts and pagination metadata in Open Flow.

Adapted from WordPress post read workflow in Zie619/n8n-workflows. The source export does not identify a separate template author or license.

The collection’s MIT notice is pinned at a later revision. This is the collection notice at that revision; it does not establish a separate original template author’s license. Our changes are listed above; see repository licensing.
