A WordPress plugin to filter WordPress REST API items for your request. Removing Content From WP API Response on your request.

Per default, a post via WordPress REST API would fetch all data in wp-json/wp/v2/posts. For many reasons you might want to exclude certain fields from WP API response in certain circumstances. This plugin enables you to filter your request for fields you require. Add items to the GET attribute on the url, like wp-json/wp/v2/posts?items=id,title,content in order to get only according field values.

The plugin supports currently the filtering of post, taxonomy and comments.

• Use the branch wp-api-v1 if you use WP-API Version 1.
• The master branch is for development, currently ready and open for feature requests for the WP API Version 2.
