# Answerable Connect (WordPress plugin)
Makes a WordPress site agent-discoverable without server access, DNS changes, or an IT team. Install like any other plugin, paste your running Answerable instance’s URL into Settings → Answerable Connect, done.
Answerable still does all the actual work — facts, agent card, MCP, booking. This plugin only:
- Proxies
/llms.txt,/.well-known/agent.json,/.well-known/mcp.jsonfrom your WordPress domain to your Answerable instance (these are supposed to resolve same-origin, so a plain script tag can’t serve them — they need this). - Adds the same discovery
<link>tags to<head>that Answerable’s own reverse-proxy mode injects.
# Install
- WordPress admin → Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin → pick this folder zipped up → Activate.
- Settings → Answerable Connect → paste your Answerable instance’s base
URL (e.g.
https://myorg-answerable.up.railway.app). - Requires “pretty permalinks” (Settings → Permalinks → anything but “Plain”) — the plugin warns you in wp-admin if they’re off.
# Limitations
- You still need an Answerable instance running somewhere (your own host, Railway, etc.) — this plugin is a connector, not a reimplementation.
/mcpand booking endpoints aren’t proxied; they don’t need to be same-origin, so the agent card and manifest just point agents straight at your Answerable instance for those.- Some hosts intercept
.well-known/at the web server level before WordPress ever sees the request. Rare on shared WP hosting, but worth checking if the proxy paths 404.
