Installation Instructions

1. Upload the entire wp-api-json-feed folder to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory or download it through the WordPress backend.
2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.

Once the plugin is activated, it will work out of the box and provide a JSON feed for posts. If you want to provide JSON feeds for further post types, you need to specify an additional argument show_json_feed when registering the post type, and set it to a boolean true. You may also specify a json_feed_base argument being a string identifier that should be used in the feed URL. If no string identifier is provided, the post type slug will be used.

How can I add a feed for my custom post type?

Where should I submit my support request?
