WordPress.com Connect Examples
======================

Code Examples for Implementing WordPress.com Connect

### Instructions

These examples require minor changes to get working. The full instructions for getting a PHP app running are on [developer.wordpress.com](http://developer.wordpress.com/docs/wpcc/).

These instructions assume you know how to run a website for your chosen framework: PHP (start a webserver), Node.js (run npm install), etc.

1. Log in to [WordPress.com](http://wordpress.com)
2. Create a new WPCC application: [developer.wordpress.com/apps/](https://developer.wordpress.com/apps/). You can change these settings at any time.
3. Adjust the following values (in the proper config file) to match the ones in your WPCC application:
   - Client ID
   - Client Secret
   - Login URL 
   - Redirect URL 
4. Start your server and log in.
5. Profit!

Storing and using the access token is an exercise left for the developer.

If you implement a framework we don't have, we'd love to include it in this project. Just submit a pull request.
