Beschreibung
If you wish to ‚Create comments‘ using REST API, without exposing Administrator credentials to the Front-End application, you are at the right place. Since WordPress 4.7, REST API was natively included in WordPress.
In order to ‚Create a comment‘ , the authentication for a user with ‚Administrator‘ role is required. While this is a deliberately done for security reasons, such implementation makes it very hard for Front-End applications to implement a simple ‚Post Comment‘ or ‚Reply Comment‘ function.
This plugin fulfils such requirement by extending the existing WordPress REST API endpoints.
Requirements:
Minimum PHP version: 7.0
Minimum WordPress version: 5.5
Installation:
Download the plugin form wordpress marketplace install it like any other WordPress plugin.
After the installation activate the plugin through the ‚Plugins‘ menu in WordPress
Endpoint:
When this plugin is installed one new endpoint is added to the wp/v2 namespace.
Endpoint
HTTP Verb
Permalinks
*/wp-json/wp/v2/comments/create
POST
enabled
*/?rest_route=/wp/v2/comments/create

}
}
`

„author_email“: „Comment Author’s email“,
„content“: „Comment content“,
„parent“:“Comment parent ID“
}
`
