get_body_class() relies on $wp_query to do its thing, which is apparently a no-go for the JSON API. I considered creating a global object to hold the body class, and just using that to keep the body_class up to date…but that wouldn’t work without page reloads, and there would be no assurance that the object was … Read more
You’ll want to use cURL to do server to server connections. There are plenty of examples online but here is a good starting point so you can at least know what functions to look into. http://php.net/manual/en/curl.examples-basic.php
Enabling CORS with WordPress
Use global variables to pass values from the template to the header. // in the template file global $my_page_title; $my_page_title=”field value”; global $my_meta_description; $my_meta_description = ‘field value’; get_header(); // in the header file global $my_page_title; global $my_meta_description; echo $my_page_title; echo $my_meta_description;

Add Custom API Call to WP-Login.php
It would make sense for the default value to be available via: wp.customize.instance( ‘slug_awesome_title’ ).default Or equivalently: wp.customize( ‘slug_awesome_title’ ).default However, I can see the default is simply not getting exported from PHP to JS. I can see that this is going to be needed in core also when client-side templating replaces server-side rendering of … Read more

If you are handling forms by yourself instead of using the APIs you will need to strip the slashes, probably best to be done when saving … Read more
