I've always wanted to be able to post drawings directly from Procreate to my website. Here's how. You're going to need the WordPress app and Procreate on your iPad and a website set up with Elementor and access to wherever you're hosting your website. Create a new page and edit with Elementor. Drag the post element onto the page. Update your page and then go over to your hosting site. In your theme folder, download functions.php. Then we're going to copy and paste some code at the bottom of that file. I know this looks scary, but it's just a text file. Paste the copy. Save, close, and rewrite that file to your server. We had to do that because WordPress doesn't auto-generate a thumbnail. In Procreate, share your image as a PNG to WordPress and publish.
