Feature request: post_author #7

Closed bentasm1 closed 7 years ago

If you can add a post_author query, then you can also start hooking into WC Vendors for multi vendor marketplaces. Quite a useful feature to add. Simply doing post_author="xx" where xx is ID, and you'd make a lot of our members happy. :-)

Interesting. I'll look into adding that. Could you email me the plugin so I can test with it?

Also, I'm assuming this is just needed for the [recent_external_products] shortcode right? Since the other one uses product ID's, post author would be irrelevant.

WooCommerce doesn't do much with authors by default (products hide the option), so it doesn't seem to be possible to get a list of products using post_author with the current version of the API: http://woocommerce.github.io/woocommerce-rest-api-docs/#list-all-products. Would require some customization on the WC side, something this plugin doesn't have control over.

But I will keep an eye out for this to be a filtering option.
