Checklist for a new site

• ACF Pro active.
• content_format taxonomy exists with the site's formats.
• webboulder_authority_topic exists (or the field is left blank).
• SEOPress (or the chosen meta plugin) active.

warning

Do not assume another site has the same plugins or field names. Inspect first, then enable the publish bridge.
