In reply to: [Frontier] Compatibility with Caldera Forms?I’m using the PayPal Express add on. I also have credit card, CVV, expiration number. There are several date picker controls, file upload controls, checkboxes, rich text editor and the standard one line field.
Greatly appreciate assistance from both of you.

In reply to: Where to Add Custom REST API Endpoint Logic?I appreciate the advice and feedback. I’ve been a developer for over 2 decades but am fairly new to WordPress. Based on your suggestions, I’ve moved away from housing my Angular logic in a theme and instead leveraging Angular inside the plugin I’m creating.
I’m surprised that Angular is not a full partner yet in the WordPress ecosystem. I’ve used it for years when developing custom content management platforms but it does not appear to be embraced yet in this use case.
Thanks again for your help and guidance.

In reply to: Where to Add Custom REST API Endpoint Logic?Thanks for your reply. Conceptually, my plan is to create an Angular theme that replaces the UI completely. In doing so, it can be styled the way we want it, and use the API endpoints to send data back to the database, in cases of updating static pages, adding registrants or updating registrant payment status. This would mean that a server side plugin is driving the custom endpoints to ensure the registrant data from the UI is stored in the database meta table.
All that being said, it sounds like I need a server side plugin that creates the custom endpoints and allows the extended API to receive authenticated POST requests from the Angular theme in situations where a registrant is paying their membership, uploading their docuemts etc. The theme would be solely focused on serving the static content (pages), allowing users and admin to login, and providing the user experience based on the authentication permissions of the logged in user.
Just want to make sure I’m going about this with best practices in mind, especially in this cross platform world where users will be browsing the site on tablets and phones more so than on desktop browsers.

In reply to: Suggested Structure for WP API Angular 4 Custom ModulesI appreciate your guidance. Since part of the solution will be integrating with PayPal Payflow Gateway, I’m thinking server side only. Good ideas especially on the single plugin with multiple modules for admin, moderation, search, sponsors, payments and registration. Thanks!

Forum: Fixing WordPress
In reply to: WP Admin Pages Throw HTTP 500So, I found that Contact Form 7 and Jetpack were throwing errors and I’ve disabled them. This now seems to have “fixed” the issue. The only new thing that Host 99 did was to allow CPanel settings to use the current version installed, PHP 5.6, or downgrade to previous versions. I chose to inherit from the installed version. The .htaccess file refers to this PHP version selector and no other abnormal entries are in it.
It’s still a mystery why Contact Form 7 and JetPack disables certain admin sections. Will continue to research. Thanks for the nudge in the right direction.
