WordPress Integration Fixes

Issues Fixed

1. Validation Error (400 Bad Request)

Problem: When creating WordPress integration with API key-only authentication, the backend was rejecting the request because username and app_password were empty strings.

Root Cause: The serializer was validating credentials but didn't account for API key-only authentication where username/password are optional.

Fix: Added custom validation in SiteIntegrationSerializer to allow API key-only authentication for WordPress platform:

• If api_key is provided in credentials_json, username and app_password are optional
• If api_key is not provided, username and app_password are required (traditional auth)

File: backend/igny8_core/modules/integration/views.py

2. Status Indicator Not Showing Connected

Problem: Status indicator showed "Not configured" even when integration existed and was active.

Root Cause: Status check only looked for site?.wp_api_key but didn't check for API key in integration's credentials_json.

Fix: Updated status check to look for API key in both:

• Site's wp_api_key field
• Integration's credentials_json.api_key field

File: frontend/src/pages/Sites/Settings.tsx

3. Integration Creation Error Handling

Problem: When toggling integration enabled without API key, no clear error was shown.

Fix: Added error handling to show clear message when trying to enable integration without API key.

File: frontend/src/components/sites/WordPressIntegrationForm.tsx

Content Sync Status

Content sync will work as long as:

1. ✅ Integration exists in database
2. ✅ Integration is_active = True
3. ✅ Integration sync_enabled = True

The sync service checks these conditions before performing sync operations.

Testing Checklist

• Create WordPress integration with API key only (no username/password)
• Status indicator shows "Configured" when integration exists and is active
• Status indicator shows "Connected" after successful connection test
• Content sync works when integration is active and sync_enabled
• Error messages are clear when API key is missing
