### 󠀁[REST API doesn’t work anymore](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/rest-api-doesnt-work-anymore/)󠁿

 [napolux](https://profiles.wordpress.org/napolux/) Januari 20, 2018

This plugin should not be installed, it’s outdated. Plus, api endpoints are not 
working, and format for related in /posts/POST_ID REST api endpoint is not using
a consistent format for when related are not present.
