WordPress Rules
Here was the simple solution I came up with:
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^/(.+) /index.php [QSA,L][QSA,L] does 2 things:
- It marks the LAST (L) rule to use (so if a URL matches this rule, the engine stops and uses it without consideration of the rules after it)
- QSA copies the query string to the destination
I found out the hard way that [QSA, L] was throwing an error, but [QSA,L] wasn't.
If you didn't see the difference, read that again (see that space?)!
WP-API URL Rules
RewriteRule ^/api(/.+) /index.php?json_route=$1 [QSA,L]
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}%{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^/(.+) /index.php [QSA,L]Notice, how I placed the /api/ rule BEFORE the normal WordPress rule!
Now, you should be able to access the WP-API's:
