Plugin Description
If you wish to ‘Register User’ using REST API, without exposing Administrator credentials to the Front End application, you are at the right place. Since WordPress 4.7, REST API was natively included in WordPress.
In order to ‘Register User’, the authentication for a user with ‘Administrator’ role is required. While this is a delibrately done for security reasons, such implementation makes it very hard for Front End applications to implement a simple ‘Register’ or ‘Sign Up’ function.
This plugin fullfills such requirement by extending the existing WordPress REST API endpoints.
Usage
Send a POST request to /wp-json/wp/v2/users/register, including a JSON body with three keys: username, email and password.
