Generate a single post

You’ll generate one post on a topic of your choice, right now, without creating a campaign. This is the quickest way to get a time-sensitive article out, to test your setup, or to see what Structura produces before you automate anything.

Single posts run through the same engine as campaigns — the same persona, SEO grounding, and image generation — but nothing is scheduled and nothing repeats. If you want posts on autopilot, set up a campaign instead.

Before you start

  • An AI provider is connected (or your plan includes managed AI).
  • You have at least one persona. If the button is disabled, the tooltip tells you what’s missing.

Steps

  1. In WordPress admin, open Structura and click Generate Post in the Dashboard header. In the customer portal, open your site and choose Generate post.
  2. Describe what the post should be about (at least 20 characters). The optional Generate post strategy button drafts the topic and picks a Writing approach for you.
  3. (Optional, paid plans) Attach Research material — up to 5 files (PDF, DOCX, TXT, MD or HTML, up to 10 MB each), such as reports, briefs, or interview notes. Structura reads each file as you add it and grounds the post in what it finds. Very long documents are read partially — the row under the file tells you how much (for example, “using the first ~8 pages”).
  4. (Optional, paid plans) Set a Focus keyphrase and Authority sources under SEO Targeting. You don’t have to ask for keyphrases: when you leave the topic field (or Generate post strategy fills it in), Structura suggests them from live search data and picks the top-ranked one for you. Choose another, type your own, or clear it.
  5. Review AI & Persona (provider, quality, persona, language, post length, post status) and Content Options (images, disclosure), then click Generate Now. The provider starts on the best one you’ve connected, with its recommended model. If you pick Gemini for text, a notice explains that Gemini isn’t recommended for writing and offers to switch. On Cloud there is no provider or quality to choose, for text or images: Structura picks the models.
  6. Watch the run’s progress timeline. Generation usually takes 4–5 minutes.

What happens next

  • Publish immediately posts go live as soon as the run succeeds; Save as draft posts wait for your review, and so do Pending review posts, the customer portal’s default.
  • The run page links to the finished post, and Run again repeats the generation with the same inputs — including your attached research files.
  • Attached files stay available to Run again for about 90 days. If a file has expired, the run simply continues without it and notes that in the run log.

Common issues

  • “We couldn’t read this file.” The file may be corrupt or a scanned/image-only PDF. Export a text-based version and re-attach it.
  • The Research material section shows an upgrade prompt. Research attachments are available on paid plans.
  • The post ignored my document. Structura uses attachments as source material, not as a script — it draws facts and positioning from them where relevant. If the document matters more than the topic description suggests, mention its angle in the topic itself.
  • The generate button shows a spinner after you click it. If you click Generate Now (Generate post in the customer portal) right after writing the topic, or while Suggest keyphrases is running, the post waits for the suggestion, takes the top-ranked keyphrase unless you already picked one, then starts by itself. You don’t need to click again.
