Submit post without login

  • Hi –

    I would like to use this plugin for a competition app I’m building. So is it possible to submit posts without having a user login? I’ve retrieved the nonce etc but get the response that you need to “login with a user who has ‘edit posts’ credentials”.

    Is there a way to bypass this without compromising the security of my website?

    Thanks,
    Helen

  • You could either:

    1. Use the “json api user” plugin to auto-register a user (perhaps later ensuring security via email validation), then submit the post with that user.

    2. Edit the json api code to not check to ensure the user has the edit posts permission. I don’t believe there is any inherent limitation to doing this, though I haven’t tried it, so I may be wrong.
