**Features**
== Features ==

* Distributor supports safe, SEO-friendly content reuse and sharing via "pushing" and "pulling".
* While logged in and editing or viewing any single post (or custom post type) that can be distributed, a `Distributor` admin bar item will appear, that will facilitate sharing ("pushing") that content to any `connection`.
* In the admin dashboard, a top level Distributor menu item links to the "pull" screen. Here, editors can share ("pull") content from any `connection` into the current site.
* Content this is distributed (via Push or Pull) is connected to the original. Reposted content receives updates from the original, canonical source automatically.

**Connections**
== Connections ==

There are two connection types: `internal` and `external`.
