# Translating JSON/API Results

 * I’m hoping that someone has had to do what I’m attempting to do and knows of 
   a WP plugin or even 3rd party solution. I’m using the GeoDirectory plugin and
   trying to connect their recently released API to a mobile development framework
   that supports custom JSON feeds. The issue is that the GeoDirectory API formatting
   is different than what the mobile framework needs to parse. I’ve included a cleaned
   up example of what GeoDirectory produces and what the mobile development framework
   expects. I’m essentially looking to take the input, modify it, and re-output 
   it in the correct format in realtime. Thanks for any help anyone can provide.
 * GeoDirectory Output:
 *     ```

 * Not really a WP specific answer but have you tried:
    [http://php.net/manual/en/function.json-decode.php](http://php.net/manual/en/function.json-decode.php)
 * Make amends using php and re-encode.
