YUI Preview Token solves the authentication problem in decoupled (headless) WordPress architectures. Application Passwords are a great built-in WordPress feature for this purpose, but they require managing long-lived secrets on the frontend side. This plugin instead issues per-post tokens that grant read access for a configurable period — no persistent secrets required.
The frontend (Astro, Next.js, Nuxt, etc.) receives a preview URL and can fetch the draft content directly via the REST API.
How it works
An authorized WordPress user generates a token from the Gutenberg sidebar, Quick Edit panel, or Classic Editor meta box.
The token is embedded in a preview URL pointing to your external frontend.
The frontend calls /wp-json/yui-preview-token/v1/preview?token=… to retrieve the draft content.
The token expires automatically; no manual cleanup needed.
Key Features
Token Management
Generate tokens with expiry presets: 1 hour, 24 hours, 30 days, custom date/time, or no expiry.
One token per post — issuing a new token invalidates the previous one.
Tokens are generated with bin2hex(random_bytes(32)) (256-bit CSPRNG). The lookup key stored in wp_options is the SHA-256 hash of the raw token, not the token itself — so a database leak does not expose usable tokens directly.
Automatic cleanup of expired tokens via WP Cron (daily).
Editor Integration
Gutenberg: dedicated panel in the Document Settings sidebar.
Quick Edit: token controls directly in the post list.
Classic Editor: meta box in the editor sidebar.
Copy preview URL to clipboard with one click.
Update expiry without invalidating the current token.
Admin Settings
Set the external frontend URL (clicking “Open external preview” navigates directly to this URL).
Configure allowed CORS origins (multiple, with wildcard support — https://*.example.com).
Choose the minimum WordPress role required to issue tokens (Subscriber → Administrator).
Tune rate limiting (requests per time window).
Optionally permit no-expiry tokens.
Issued Tokens List
View all active and expired tokens with post title, status, expiry, and issuer.
Revoke individual tokens or bulk-delete expired ones — all from the Settings screen.
Security
HTTPS required for the preview endpoint (overridable for local development).
Per-IP rate limiting with configurable thresholds (default: 30 req / 60 s).
Role-based access control for token issuance.
CORS headers only sent for explicitly configured origins; WP core’s permissive echo-back is suppressed.
Referrer-Policy: no-referrer prevents token leakage via referer headers.
Tokens are only valid for draft, pending, and future post statuses.
Admin-only settings page with defence-in-depth capability checks.
CSRF protection on all admin actions (nonce verification).
Audit Logging
Logs token issuance and usage events (post ID, user ID, client IP).
Logs security events: invalid token attempts, rate-limit violations, capability denials.
Output goes to WP_DEBUG_LOG by default; point to a dedicated file with PVT_LOG_FILE.
Internationalisation
Ships with Japanese (ja) and Simplified Chinese (zh_CN) translations.
All admin UI strings are translation-ready.
Developer Hooks
Filter
yuipt_preview_response_data — Modify the REST API response data before it is sent.
Actions
yuipt_token_issued( int $post_id, int $user_id ) — Fires after a token is issued.
yuipt_token_used( int $post_id, int $user_id ) — Fires when a token is used successfully.
yuipt_invalid_token( string $ip ) — Fires on an invalid/expired token attempt.
yuipt_rate_limit_exceeded( string $ip, string $endpoint ) — Fires when rate limit is hit.
yuipt_capability_denied( int $user_id, int $post_id ) — Fires on a capability denial.
Constants (wp-config.php)
PVT_SKIP_HTTPS_CHECK — Set to true to disable the HTTPS requirement (development only).
PVT_LOG_FILE — Absolute path to a dedicated audit log file.
Use Case
This plugin is designed for headless WordPress setups where a decoupled frontend (e.g. Astro, Next.js, Nuxt, SvelteKit) renders content from the WordPress REST API. It gives content editors a simple, secure way to share draft previews with stakeholders without granting them WordPress accounts or exposing long-lived API credentials.
