Securely connect your Chrome extension to WordPress for uploading images and posting content via custom REST API.

* JSON-based post publishing from extensions
* Token-based authentication
* Built for integration with Chrome extensions
* Lightweight and easy to set up

== Installation ==

1. Upload the plugin ZIP via **Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin** in your WordPress dashboard.
2. Activate the plugin.
3. Use the `/wp-json/custom-api/receive` endpoint for communication.
4. Set your token in the plugin PHP file (`$secretToken = 'your_custom_token';`) for access control.

== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= Q. Can I use this with any Chrome extension? =
Yes. Just make sure your extension makes requests to the correct endpoint and includes the token.

The plugin accepts JSON containing `title`, `content`, and `image_url`.
