Hi !
If I didn't use ACF to create my custom post and field how can take my meta data ?
I mean that the function "get_field" is created by ACF but when I use your code I have this message "Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function get_field() "

Another function exist to call custom fields from my database ? Thanks for the tuto.

Hello. Thank you for the video. I have an issue with custom post types. I have created product post type and wordpress api shows me json data in broweser for this post type. But when I try to post to API by specifing 'type':'product' post content goes to normal post type (not to custom post type products). How can I solve this?

Is there a way to do a POST method to a custom field?

I am recreating what you have done above but instead for users, I have it working for the standard wordpress user fields but when I try to add the acf user fields to the end point I keep getting a null value. Also is there a way that I can allow this end point to be read and updated too? Thanks

How do you like the WP api vs using October CMS

[jfudman]

what about custom ordering & pagination for the products?

[MarceloCoelho]

How would you get the endpoint to show a woocommerce order with some order details?

Hi. Thanks for the informative video. How do I return an array of ids in this example? I have an array of topics with the values "topic": [1, 2, 3] when I view the standard rest api, but when I use the code $data[$i]['topic'] = $post->post_topic; my results are "topic": "" and not 1, 2, 3. Your assistance will be greatly appreciated. Thanks
