## Configuration

### Step 1: Generate WordPress Application Passwords

For each WordPress site:

1. Log in to WordPress admin
2. Navigate to: **Users → Your Profile**
3. Scroll to **Application Passwords** section
4. Enter name: `MCP Server`
5. Click **Add New Application Password**
6. Copy the generated password (format: `xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx`)

**Important**: Save this password immediately. You cannot retrieve it later.

### Step 2: Generate WooCommerce API Keys

If using WooCommerce tools:

1. Go to: **WooCommerce → Settings → Advanced → REST API**
2. Click **Add Key**
3. Fill in:
   - **Description**: `MCP Server`
   - **User**: Select admin user
   - **Permissions**: `Read/Write`
4. Click **Generate API Key**
5. Copy **Consumer Key** and **Consumer Secret**

### Step 3: Configure Environment Variables

Edit `.env` file:

```bash
# Basic Configuration
MCP_SERVER_NAME=mcphub
MCP_SERVER_VERSION=1.0.0

# Site 1 - Main WordPress Site
WORDPRESS_SITE1_URL=https://example.com
WORDPRESS_SITE1_USERNAME=admin
WORDPRESS_SITE1_APP_PASSWORD=xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx
WORDPRESS_SITE1_WC_CONSUMER_KEY=ck_xxxxxxxxxxxxx
WORDPRESS_SITE1_WC_CONSUMER_SECRET=cs_xxxxxxxxxxxxx
WORDPRESS_SITE1_ALIAS=mainsite

# Site 2 - E-commerce Site (Optional)
WORDPRESS_SITE2_URL=https://shop.example.com
WORDPRESS_SITE2_USERNAME=admin
WORDPRESS_SITE2_APP_PASSWORD=yyyy yyyy yyyy yyyy yyyy yyyy
WORDPRESS_SITE2_WC_CONSUMER_KEY=ck_yyyyyyyyyyyyy
WORDPRESS_SITE2_WC_CONSUMER_SECRET=cs_yyyyyyyyyyyyy
WORDPRESS_SITE2_ALIAS=shop

# Site 3 - Blog Site (Optional)
WORDPRESS_SITE3_URL=https://blog.example.com
WORDPRESS_SITE3_USERNAME=admin
WORDPRESS_SITE3_APP_PASSWORD=zzzz zzzz zzzz zzzz zzzz zzzz
WORDPRESS_SITE3_ALIAS=blog

# Rate Limiting (Optional)
RATE_LIMIT_PER_MINUTE=60
RATE_LIMIT_PER_HOUR=1000
RATE_LIMIT_PER_DAY=10000

# Logging (Optional)
LOG_LEVEL=INFO
```

### Configuration Tips

- **Site Aliases**: Use friendly names like `mainsite`, `shop`, or `blog`
- **Minimal WooCommerce**: Only configure WooCommerce keys if you need e-commerce tools
- **Testing**: Start with one site, verify it works, then add more
- **Security**: Never commit `.env` file to git

## Running the Server

### Development Mode

```bash
# Activate virtual environment (if not already active)
source venv/bin/activate  # Linux/Mac
.\venv\Scripts\Activate.ps1  # Windows

# Run server
python src/main.py

# Or use the dev script
./scripts/dev.sh  # Linux/Mac
```

### Verify Server is Running

Check logs for:

```
INFO: MCP Server initialized
INFO: Registered 390 tools
INFO: Server ready
```

---

## Testing Your Setup

### Quick Health Check

Run the test script:

```bash
./scripts/test.sh quick
```

### Manual Testing

```bash
# Run all tests
pytest

# Run with coverage
pytest --cov

# Run specific test
pytest tests/test_wordpress_plugin.py
```

### Verify Tool Registration

Check that tools are registered:

```bash
python -c "
from src.main import app
tools = app.list_tools()
print(f'Total tools: {len(tools)}')
"
```

Expected output: `Total tools: 390` (for 3 configured sites)

---

## Using MCP Tools

### Tool Naming Convention

#### Per-Site Tools (Legacy)
```
wordpress_{site}_action
```
Examples:
- `wordpress_site1_list_posts`
- `wordpress_site2_get_product`
- `wordpress_site3_create_page`

#### Unified Tools (Recommended)
```
wordpress_action(site="site_id", ...)
```
Examples:
- `wordpress_list_posts(site="site1")`
- `wordpress_get_product(site="shop", product_id=123)`
- `wordpress_create_page(site="blog", title="Hello", content="...")`

### Using Site Aliases

If you configured `WORDPRESS_SITE2_ALIAS=shop`:

```python
# Both work the same
wordpress_list_products(site="site2")
wordpress_list_products(site="shop")
```

### Example: List Posts

**Using Per-Site Tools**:
```python
result = wordpress_site1_list_posts(per_page=10, status="publish")
```

**Using Unified Tools**:
```python
result = wordpress_list_posts(site="mainsite", per_page=10, status="publish")
```

### Example: Create Product

```python
result = wordpress_create_product(
    site="shop",
    name="New Product",
    type="simple",
    regular_price="29.99",
    description="Product description",
    status="publish"
)
```

### Example: Update Page

```python
result = wordpress_update_page(
    site="blog",
    page_id=42,
    title="Updated Title",
    content="<p>Updated content</p>",
    status="publish"
)
```

## Docker Deployment

### Quick Start

```bash
# Deploy with Docker
./scripts/deploy.sh

# Or manually
docker compose up -d
```

### Docker Commands

```bash
# View logs
