SO! This is fun. Keep in mind the WP-API is still very, very much a work-in-progress. Content-Disposition I found an issue reported on the WP-API issue queue about Content-Disposition. This is a required header for posting new media content and there are some very, very strict requirements when it comes to providing this in the … Read more
$post in the callback function is an array, not an object. So you cannot use $post->id. Change it to $post[‘id’] and it should work: function slug_get_phone_number($post, $field_name, $request) { return get_post_meta($post[‘id’], ‘_phone’, true); } I recommend to change _phone to phone_number or something else without underscore prefix. Because _ is often used with private meta … Read more
Take a closer look at the function rest_cookie_check_errors(). When you get the nonce via /wp-json/nonce/v1/get, you’re not sending a nonce in the first place. So this function nullifies your authentication, with this code: if ( null === $nonce ) { // No nonce at all, so act as if it’s an unauthenticated request. wp_set_current_user( 0 … Read more
I found the simplest solution using the WP-REST API plugin,first set this in yours environment : 1.) In your themes functions.php register API endpoint hooks: add_action( ‘rest_api_init’, ‘register_api_hooks’ ); // API custom endpoints for WP-REST API function register_api_hooks() { register_rest_route( ‘custom-plugin’, ‘/login/’, array( ‘methods’ => ‘POST’, ‘callback’ => ‘login’, ) ); function login() { $output … Read more

You can return a WP_Error object in which you define the status code. Here’s a snippet from the REST API documentation: function my_awesome_func( $data ) { $posts = get_posts( array( ‘author’ => $data[‘id’], ) ); if ( empty( $posts ) ) { return new WP_Error( ‘awesome_no_author’, ‘Invalid author’, array( ‘status’ => 404 ) ); } … Read more
This solution works with get_items() in /lib/endpoints/class-wp-rest-posts-controller.php of the v2 WP Rest API. First, you’ll want to construct the GET arguments like you would for a new WP_Query(). The easiest way to do this is with http_build_query(). $args = array ( ‘filter’ => array ( ‘meta_query’ => array ( ‘relation’ => ‘AND’, array ( ‘key’ … Read more
The WP Rest API sends the total count(found_posts) property from WP_Query. in a header called X-WP-Total. FOR POSTS: you can make a call to posts endpoint of the REST API http://demo.wp-api.org/wp-json/wp/v2/posts The value for posts count is returned in the header as X-WP-Total. Below is a sample response from the hosted demo Access-Control-Allow-Headers:Authorization, Content-Type Access-Control-Expose-Headers:X-WP-Total, … Read more
OK, the approach that’s working for me is as follows: Assume that the main site user database is authoritative. The main site login cookie contains an ID and a hash of the site password. Get the cookie from the main site and revalidate it against the main site’s authentication API If valid, use the email … Read more

This will enable decoupling of the WordPress “business” logic from the … Read more
