Hi, I am very new to frontity or react, so this might come as a real noob question. Do I need to just copy and paste the media link or is there any special way of doing this like in PHP function wp_get_attachment_image()?
Hi @imrandev20, are you asking to fetch Featured Media? or please explain the question in a bit detail
No, not featured image. I was just trying to fetch a video file. I am trying to do a hero video background. Can video files be fetched using ID?
Yes, you can fetch any WordPress attachment or media in frontity by Rest API
Fetch media by ID
https://babacric.in/wp-json/wp/v2/media?id=13024
Fetch media by Post Id
https://babacric.in/wp-json/wp/v2/media?parent=13004
Hope this will help you
Thank you for your response. Since I am hosting WordPress locally, the root address would change once I host it online. Wouldn’t that require me to update the REST API link everywhere as well?
If so, is there any way around this?
You can set the Rest API path to state that is in the index.js file.
So whenever you need to change the Rest API path you have to change only in the index.js file in the state.
You see a demo below
Inside state → theme → restApiPrefix
Hope this will work
Magnificent. Thank you.
Oh great
thanks
