Sage 10:
In filters.php add:
// /** // * The filter is named rest_{post_type}_collection_params. So you need to hook a new filter for each // * of the custom post types you need to sort. // * @link https://www.timrosswebdevelopment.com/wordpress-rest-api-post-order/ // */ // This enables the orderby=menu_order for Posts add_filter( 'rest_post_collection_params', __NAMESPACE__ . '\\filter_add_rest_orderby_params', 10, 1 ); // And this for a custom post type called 'faq' add_filter( 'rest_faq_collection_params', __NAMESPACE__ . '\\filter_add_rest_orderby_params', 10, 1 ); // /** // * Add menu_order to the list of permitted orderby values // */ function filter_add_rest_orderby_params( $params ) { $params['orderby']['enum'][] = 'menu_order'; return $params; }
Now you can use SITEURL/wp-json/wp/v2/faq?orderby=menu_order
