SkyBridge Plugin

Connect your WordPress site to Bluesky. Share posts, sync replies, and bring your community together.

SkyBridge makes it easy to share your WordPress content with the Bluesky community. When you share a post, your Bluesky followers can read a summary and follow the link to your full article on your website. Replies to your post on Bluesky automatically appear under your WordPress article as comments — bringing the conversation back to your site. It works both ways — your website gets more visitors, interesting content helps the Bluesky network grow, and your articles get a built-in ad-free comment section powered by open social network.

Share your content
Post any WordPress post or page to Bluesky with a single click. SkyBridge automatically fits your title, excerpt, hashtags and link into a single Bluesky post within the 299 character limit. Attach your featured image as a rich link preview card so your posts stand out in the Bluesky feed.

Bring the conversation back
Bluesky replies appear directly under your WordPress posts in a live comments section. Replies load instantly when the page opens and stream in real time using Bluesky’s Jetstream WebSocket while the tab is active.

Simple and clean
No complicated setup. Enter your Bluesky handle and an App Password and you’re ready to go. SkyBridge never uses your main Bluesky password.
