HeadTags cause failures on some REST API responses
luisherranz opened this issue · comments
Our HeadTags plugin is causing some routes to fail in the REST API. I've tried to debug it, but I don't seem to find the root of the problem.
These two posts explain the issue with more detail: https://community.frontity.org/tags/cors
We also saw this behavior in wp.frontity.org and I've been able to reproduce it locally.
We've found out that the problem happens because we are calling the template_redirect hook.
I think I've solved it.
The template_redirect hook was calling the redirect_canonical callback (registered by WP in /wp-includes/default-filters.php). That callback accepts two arguments, being one of them a boolean value that indicates if redirect_canonical should redirect. By default, that value is true, and that's the reason why the REST API requests were redirected.
I've change the template_redirect call and the way redirect_canonical is registered and now it works.
Currently, I'm doing some testing to check that the integrations are working fine too.
Integrations are working as expected. 🙌
Awesome 👏 👏
