Cross posting is not triggered when creating post via WP rest api #119

Using the WP REST api to create a post, the Medium's save_post is not triggered. Only a 'manual' update via the WP editor will trigger the save_post.

Just took a look at the code. So the issue is in medium.php

It is using is_admin() to assign triggers. This is a 'view' based trigger - hence programmatic post creation fails.

Seems current_user_can() maybe better.

@nextpulse did you submit a PR for this by chance? Really need to see this fixed as I use the Android app for about 95% of my blog posts.
