This plugin will allow the inclusion of a given posts categories and tags in both reading from and writing to the WP REST API. I have also included a few of my own endpoints, (found at: /wp-json/e_ct/v1/) “categories” and “tags.” These endpoints will print out all categories on that site, and if you provide a post ID it will give you the categories/tags for that post. NOTE: For future compatibility I have prefixed everything with “e_” This is so if the WordPress team eventually supports this functionality, this plugin will not interfear with their API
