Incompatibility with wordpress 5.0

[daniloalvess]

I'm testing WordPress 5.0 Beta 3 and found a incompatibility with the plugin. On editing a post, some routes return error 500:

• wp-json/wp/v2/users/?who=authors&per_page=100&_locale=user
• wp-json/wp/v2/taxonomies?context=edit&_locale=user

After debugging, I think the error is on filter determine_current_user.

File: jwt-authentication-for-wp-rest-api/includes/class-jwt-auth.php on line 144

Thank you for the report.

I published a new version (1.2.5) to the repo, it fixes the recursion issue, but I will leave the issue open in case someone else has issues with Gutenberg.

Thanks again!

I just faced this issue and here is what I found to solve it:

if the request has the authentication cookie in the header wordpress_logged_in_* the JWT Bearer header parameter will be ignored, so make sure to make all the REST Request without that cookie, to make the JWT authentication work correctly.

I spent like an hour to figure it out after the last update for the JWT plugin

The determine_current_user filter which parses the request header looking for the JWT token. As you can see in the screenshot, because of Gutenberg fix, it ignores it. I don't this it's the author mistake by the way

@daniloalvess @N-Molham would you look at the linked PR #138 if it solves your issue? Thanks!
