## Description

WordPress:connect, an extension that integrates an “Asset Picker” allowing the selection
of images and other media objects directly from CELUM, embedding them into the post
and storing them in the media gallery of WordPress. This also enables you to link
them in other posts later on. As an alternative to saving in WordPress, assets can
only be linked from CELUM, so that they remain up to date at all times, even if 
they are adapted in CELUM.

To enable cross-references, the brix extension Direct Download is included as part
of WordPress:connect. If an asset from CELUM is used via WordPress:connect, the 
usage (linked or downloaded assets) can be automatically written to an information
field of the asset to mark it in CELUM with a “WordPress bullet”, for example. With
separate bullets can be distinguished whether an asset is linked in the CMS and 
deletion in CELUM DAM has an immediate effect, or is simply used there, which has
no effect on deletion in CELUM DAM.

The API key of the CELUM user and the ID of the CELUM root node to be used as well
as the “Asset Picker” version to be used can be entered via a separate WordPress
settings dialog. Just as, the desired download formats for saving assets in WordPress
can be defined for each media type. Finally, for the two types of use (download 
or link), a name can be defined, which will be set as a node-ref value for downloaded
resp. linked assets. The related information field is defined in the configuration
of the Direct Download extension.

Requires: CELUM CORA, 1 licensed API connection (for CELUM Asset Picker)
