WordPress.org Support Forum API

WordPress.org provides several API end-points for data about themes and plugins.

For example for plugins there is the plugin_api:
https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/plugins_api/

And the themes API:
https://developer.wordpress.org/reference/functions/themes_api/

But, what about a Support API?

The best option I have so far is to parse data from each forums RSS feed – for example:

https://wordpress.org/support/rss/plugin/export-user-data

But this returns the last 30 replies accross all topics for the specified plugin.

We would like to get

• All the forum topics from the last 3 months
• Each entry in those topics, with info such as author name, date, etc.

Thanks!

That´s no big deal if you got the RSS feed, have a look at it.

There is a pubDate which you can use to check for the age of the topic. strtotime() or anything alike will help you to check if that´s older than 30 days.

And you also got a link-element. This leads you to the topic, which has its own RSS feed, too.

Example:

https://wordpress.org/support/topic/cron-job-to-ftp#post-7943160
=> https://wordpress.org/support/rss/topic/cron-job-to-ftp

This is probably not as comfortable as a full API but nevertheless a good way to go.
