 * Hi,
 * I try to use WordPress REST Api but when I request a post, meta datas are not
   retrieved, such as _video_url you have when you choose a video format for a post.
   For what I read in documentation you have to set show_in_rest option to true 
   when using register_meta function. But I can’t find where it is called in Hueman
   theme. Not sure it is called anyway. Any idea how I could do that ?
 * Regards,
 * Olivier
