mwl-data added to json rest request

I have a web app loading all content via the REST API and display it dynamically on one site. I’ve tried many gallery plugins and the meow one’s the only, that goes along with that. Great job!

Nevertheless I also need a Lightbox, but there is a problem with the rest requests: The Meow Lightbox plugin adds a script tag with the mwl-data to the JSON and brokes it.

In my rest request functions there are some post loops (get_posts) that collects the post data and apply the content filter on the post content. I think while doing this, the plugin adds the script tag to the response body.

It’s a pitty, as the Lightbox – apart from that – works as I need it. Do you have any suggestions or a workaround?

Best,
Jan
