Today, I wanted to go over how you could be connecting mobile applications to WP REST API using OAuth2. Starting with WordPress 4.7 we are able to connect any application that is able to handle HTTP requests to use the REST API. There is however an issue when it comes to making authenticated calls.

I was told that the message was being used to funnel users to purchase WP OAuth Server. I can assure your that this was not the case. The […]
