Use WordPress with a custom OAuth2 provider
I have seen many plugins do it this way. But it definitely seems like a very tedious step to follow for the user in order to use the plugin… Is it the right method? Yes. Should I somehow, store my Consumer API key & secret details on my server? And any of my distributed plugins … Read more
Create a php callback/endpoint for an OAuth script

I know it’s a bit far fetched, but might help. For anyone looking for WP REST API implementation with JWT, here’s our solution. Add it to your function.php add_action(‘rest_api_init’, ‘wp_rest_user_endpoints’); /** * Register a new user * * @param WP_REST_Request $request Full details about the request. * @return array $args. **/ function wp_rest_user_endpoints($request) { /** … Read more
