BDP API Helper BDP API Helper is a lightweight WordPress plugin that extends the Business Directory Plugin (BDP) by exposing BDP custom fields via the WordPress REST API and validating field updates for clean, safe automation. 🎯 Goal This plugin enables developers to reliably automate updates to BDP listings through the REST API by: - Dynamically listing available BDP custom fields (meta fields) via a /fields API endpoint - Validating updates to ensure only real, existing fields can be modified - Rejecting invalid API update attempts with clear error messages - Providing a professional-grade, reliable foundation for external automation (e.g., Python scripts, Zapier integrations) 📦 Installation 1. Clone or download this repository. 2. Upload the bdp-api-helper folder into your WordPress site's wp-content/plugins/ directory. 3.
