* Hi , I need to insert posts using WP REST API from a codeigniter website , here
is my controller:
* ```
public function tst()
{
require_once( 'c:/xampp/htdocs/2/wordpress/wp-load.php' );
$this->load->view('tst');
}
```
* And this is the tst.php view content:
* ```
esc_url_raw( rest_url() ),
'nonce' => wp_create_nonce( 'wp_rest' )
) );
// Enqueued script with localized data.
wp_enqueue_script( 'wp-api' );
print_r( array(
'root' => esc_url_raw( rest_url() ),
'nonce' => wp_create_nonce( 'wp_rest' )
) );
?>
```
* This is the output for
* ```
print_r( array(
'root' => esc_url_raw( rest_url() ),
'nonce' => wp_create_nonce( 'wp_rest' )
) );
```
* Array ( [root] => [http://localhost/2/wordpress/wp-json/](http://localhost/2/wordpress/wp-json/)[
nonce] => 04864b371a )
* The error I get is ReferenceError: wpApiSettings is not defined, for this line
of code:
* url: wpApiSettings.root + ‘wp/v2/posts/1’,
* If wpApiSettings gets a value in the php section code , why isn’t it defined
in the javascript section ?

* wp_localize_script() is not called within a callback to “wp_enqueue_scripts”
so the necessary output defining wpApiSettings never occurs.
* You should not load jQuery from googleapis.com, WP has its own local version.
Load it simply by specifying `[jquery]` as a dependency argument when enqueuing
you JS script.
* Please use backticks or the code button to demarcate your code, otherwise it
gets corrupted, making it difficult for others to test. I fixed your post for
you this time.
