Managing multiple WordPress sites in your Private Blog Network (PBN)? Save time by creating application passwords quickly and securely across all your hosted sites. This guide will walk you through the easiest method to create them โ€” both from hosting panels and directly inside WordPress admin.


๐ŸŒ What is an Application Password?

An Application Password allows external tools (like PBN Poster Pro) to post to your WordPress blogs securely via the REST API, without using your main admin login.


โš™๏ธ Method 1: Create via WordPress Admin (Recommended)

  1. Log in to your WordPress Dashboard.
  2. Go to Users โ†’ Profile (or click โ€œYour Profileโ€ in top right).
  3. Scroll to the section Application Passwords.
  4. Enter a name like PBN Poster Pro and click Add New Application Password.
  5. Copy the generated password immediately. (You wonโ€™t see it again!)

Use this format in PBN Poster Pro:
yourdomain.com|youremail@gmail.com|Admin|YourNewAppPassword


๐Ÿš€ Method 2: Bulk Application Passwords on PBN Hosting (Optional)

If your hosting supports terminal or bulk WP-CLI scripts, you can automate app password generation for many WordPress installs at once.

wp user application-password create admin "PBN Poster Pro"

Use this in a loop across your hosted directories. Works only if WP-CLI is installed.


โœ… Final Notes

  • Application passwords are site-specific and secure.
  • They can be revoked anytime from WordPress.
  • Ensure REST API is enabled (default in WordPress).

Now youโ€™re ready to use PBN Poster Pro for automatic blog posting and backlink building!
