Are there any updates an a new authentication mechanism that is compatible with nginx servers? The last that I can find are topics from the end of May saying that is was “being worked on”

Hi Aaron,

I’m not sure which topic you’re referring to, we all use ngnix servers here for testing the mobile apps and they work on those. Maybe you’re thinking of the the issue with http Authentication header and servers that use FCGI?

If so, there’s a closed issue on the WP-API that sums up what’s happening and has a few suggestions for how to fix at the server level:

“It’s likely that your server isn’t compatible with the current method of Authentication that the mobile apps use. They’re going to work in another method of Authentication that should be compatible with a wider variety of servers. When that’s ready, I do not know because they’re off to a slow start on making that happen.”

The current methods of Authentication are compatible with ngnix. One day, they may add support for oAuth, but I have no idea when that will happen.

The solution to get the Authorization working on your site may be the one posted here:
