This guide explains how to display Local Content Engine content on a WordPress website using the Launch365 WordPress plugin.
What the WordPress Plugin Does
The Launch365 WordPress plugin uses server-side requests from WordPress to pull Local Content Engine data and render it as crawlable page content.
This lets you display:
- City maps
- Mini-job cards
- City lists
- Service-type filtered job content
- Pagination
- Auto-generated city pages
Prerequisites
Before setup, make sure you have:
- A working WordPress website
- The Launch365 Local Content Engine WordPress plugin installed
- Your Launch365 API key
- Local Content Engine enabled in LaunchSMS
- Mini jobs already generating from at least one provider
Step 1: Install the Plugin
Upload and activate the Launch365 Local Content Engine plugin on your WordPress site.
After activation, open the plugin settings page inside WordPress.
Step 2: Add Your Launch365 API Key
In WordPress plugin settings, enter your:
- Launch365 API Key
The plugin uses this key to know which company data to load.
Note: the Launch365 API base URL is fixed in the plugin and does not need to be manually entered.
Step 3: Optional Auto Page Settings
The plugin can auto-create city pages when new mini-job cities become available.
Available auto page settings include:
- Page title template
- Page URL template
- Parent page
- Page template
- Sidebar
- Page status
- Content template
- H1 template
- Meta title template
- Meta description template
The plugin accepts tokens such as:
[sa-city][sa-state]
Step 4: Optional Sync Webhook
The WordPress plugin exposes a sync webhook URL that can be used by LaunchSMS to trigger page syncs immediately when new cities appear.
Example format:
https://yourdomain.com/wp-json/lsms-jobmap/v1/sync?key=...
If you want immediate sync from LaunchSMS, place this value into:
- Local Content Engine > WordPress Sync Webhook URL
If you do not use the webhook, the plugin can still sync on its own schedule.
Step 5: Add Shortcodes to Pages

When used this way, the plugin can automatically hide the map and reserve those service types so the same mini jobs are not duplicated on city pages.
Supported Shortcode Attributes
The plugin supports:
citystatejobstartjobcountpaginatepagejobcityurlshowjobsshowmapservice_typesservice_typeexclude_service_typesexclude_service_type
Recommended WordPress Setup Pattern
City pages
Use city + state shortcodes for:
- Raleigh, NC
- Charlotte, NC
- Fayetteville, NC
Service pages
Use service_types shortcodes for pages like:
- AC Repair
- Indoor Air Quality
- Heat Pump Repair
This gives you clean separation between service-area content and service-specific content.
Testing Checklist

- The plugin connects successfully with your API key
- Mini-job cards render on the page
- Images and/or videos appear correctly
- Service-type filters work

- Confirm the shortcode uses bothÂ
city andÂstate together when filtering by city - Confirm the page is published and not cached incorrectly
