WP REST API – Pure Taxonomies

Now you have no need to make additional requests to get taxonomy info (term_id, name, slug, term_group, term_taxonomy_id, taxonomy, description, parent, count, filter) from their id that is available in the default json response.

Now all available taxonomy data is available in ‘pure_taxonomies’ field from your json response. It works for all custom added taxonomies, and for custom post types.

For example in ‘wp-json/wp/v2/posts’ you can find default fields ‘categories’, ‘tags’ and name of custom added taxonomies that contain only its id. With this plugin you can also find new ‘pure_taxonomies’ field that include all available ‘categories’, ‘tags’ and custom taxonomies data.

Before: { … categories: [ 3 ], tags: [ 2 ], custom_taxonomy_name: [ 1 ] … }

After: { … pure_taxonomies: { categories: [ { term_id: 3, name: “First category”, slug: “first-category”, term_group: 0, term_taxonomy_id: 3, taxonomy: “category”, description: “”, parent: 0, count: 3, filter: “raw”, cat_ID: 3, category_count: 3, category_description: “”, cat_name: “First category”, category_nicename: “first-category”, category_parent: 0 } ], tags: [ { term_id: 2, name: “First tag”, slug: “first-tag”, term_group: 0, term_taxonomy_id: 2, taxonomy: “post_tag”, description: “”, parent: 0, count: 2, filter: “raw” } ], custom_taxonomy_name: [ { term_id: 1, name: “Custom Taxonomy Name”, slug: “custom-taxonomy-name”, term_group: 0, term_taxonomy_id: 1, taxonomy: “custom_taxonomy_name”, description: “”, parent: 0, count: 1, filter: “raw” } ] } … }
