I have a Wordpress site and a Laravel site and I want to display recent wordpress posts in the footer of Laravel site. How can I do this without having my wordpress database information in my config/database.php file and using it in the models? Can I get them using RSS?
Recent WordPress was released with a huge thing called REST API – earlier it was possible only with external plugins. So now we can query WordPress database from external projects. Including Laravel.
set up a local WordPress website, and after installation you got that usual dashboard.
we can already make API calls after installation. No need to configure anything, we just launch the URL in the browser:
we’ve received a JSON with a list of posts – by default, WordPress creates one dummy post.
Basically, URL structure for the API calls is simple:
/wp-json/wp/v2/[endpoint]?[parameters]
Yes, you’ve read it right, we can get posts, categories, tags and other things that are publicly available, so we don’t need any authentication here.
And we also can filter the data with GET parameters, like this:
/wp-json/wp/v2/posts?per_page=2&orderby=title
For more details open link:- Using WordPress REST API in Laravel
You can get the posts by calling an API endpoint:
yoursiteurl/wp-json/wp/v2/posts
It will return all the posts in a json format. You can also see the reference from here.

I tried to use one plugin called "WP Data Sync". I am also going through its documentation/ support for the same. I am also having wpbakery page builder in my website. So is there any way that we sync with that also?
Note - We have to sync data in the form of images, image gallery, events listing, and the blog posts.
Did you check out WP Data Syncs website at https://wpdatasync.com/ and create an account to check out an API key?
I'm not sure about all APIs, but the ones I've used in the past would require me to register with the API's website, get issued an API key and maybe even designate the key to a specific website (your WordPress site in this case) for security reasons. After that, you would then go to your WP site and setup the API there via WP DataSyncs plugin.
I hope I understood your question and that this helps.
I am looking to build a wordpress website with GatsbyJS (so no PHP usage. Just using Wordpress API and react JSX on the front-end).
I know I can get any core wordpress data at /wp-json route, but I'm not sure about plugin data. I've tried to look up plugin data and it does not seem to be included in wp-json.
I found this "compatible plugins" page: https://v2.wp-api.org/guide/plugins/
Does this mean that for most other plugins data would not be present in the Wordpress API?
Correct. Unless these plugins expose their data via the REST API (either by extending the existing endpoints or by creating their own, like some plugins do), you won't be able to access it.
In such cases, you either ask the developers to expose their plugin's data via the REST API or you code some custom endpoints yourself to get the data you need from them.
I am trying to use the wordpress API to retrieve recent blog posts from a wordpress blog, and display them on a non-wordpress site.
I have read a bunch of tutorials and the documentation on implementing the API, all of which state that you must install wordpress on your server in order to use the API.
Is this definitely the only use case? Is there an implementation I can use which does not require us to install wordpress on the server?
All I want to do is retrieve recent posts and display them in a list which will link out to the actual wordpress blog.
The folks commenting are confused by your statement, because they all assume (as highly technical individuals do), you're referring to a self-hosted WordPress.
No. You do NOT have to have a WordPress install to use the WordPress**.COM** API.
Example:
https://public-api.wordpress.com/wp/v2
Documentation:
https://developer.wordpress.com/docs/api/
Good luck!
We want to use the Wordpress Rest-API to build a page decoupled from the backend. A few things still bother us though:
Within the wordpress backend one can add links in the content editor of a page or a post and one gets normally a list of all existing pages and posts of the same page to link to them. By decoupling the backend it does not know the exact urls to other pages and we need to provide this. Is there a possibility to tell wordpress what links are available?
Thanks in advance.
Cheers
For those looking for the answer:
There are two URL settings under Settings > General.
WordPress Address (URL) should be the URL for your api site. Like api.whatever.com.
Site Address (URL) should be the URL for the frontend. Like www.whatever.com.
This allows the internal linking to work properly in the Editor while keeping the backend site on a separate URL from a headless frontend.
I'm not sure what you're trying to ask. The WordPress REST API just provides a way to access posts, etc. from somewhere else part from the web site side (e.g. themes, etc). Pages would still be accessible from the admin backend and the JSON/REST API: https://developer.wordpress.org/rest-api/reference/pages/
Specifically with WordPress you could ensure that you're not rewriting the permalinks. That way they are all still site.com/?p=post-id
That way it's easy to parse fetch the new pages. Then replace the hrefs with whatever your frontend needs.
You could use the ID to fetch the slug of the new post immediately.
Or you could even keep a mapping in your presentation layer of IDs to your own slugs.
Changing the site_url doesn't work for me.
Since I also have a wordpress theme with custom rest controllers
Plus the wp-json breaks if I change the site url
My backend is hosted at digital ocean app
My frontend is hosted at vercel
I fixed it by using a wordpress plugin called make-paths-relative
But since my backend doesnt know where my frontend is I added one change within the plugin at:
frontend/class-make-paths-relative.php line 123
I added a constant FRONTEND_URL which i define in the wp-config
$relative_link = FRONTEND_URL.$link;
This changes both the permalink within my backend of a post, page or cpt
And changes internal links as wel, links within the content editor
I made a request to the plugin author as well
I've word-press blog installed on my Godaddy's Domain.
www.mysite.com/blog
I want to get the latest posts of my blog using C#/ASP.Net code, how can I do this?
WordPress provides an XML-RPC API that includes getPosts and similar function. You can find a couple of pre-built clients for it on NuGet; I haven't tried either to recommend them but from the GitHub readme the first one looks more complete:
POSSIBLE.WordPress.XmlRpcClient (NuGet)
WordPress XML-RPC Client for .NET (NuGet)
Also if you've got the Jetpack plugin installed on your site then that adds a JSON API. I can't recommend one sorry but again there'll be OAuth2 and REST API clients on NuGet.
Ok guys; basically i required my latest blogs post , so what i used
http://p3k.org/rss/
p3k.org/ takes the path of my blog feed and returns me latest post.
I simply embed in my project using the generated script . So i don't need to get info ASP.net code .
Cheers!
As per my view and research, you can access wordpress DB in asp.net c# by using MySqlConnection.
