Overview
If your site uses the Genesis framework, it’s likely that you’re making use of Genesis hooks like genesis_before_content or genesis_entry_footer. When using the WP REST API, any content that has been added to these hooks is not included in the response by default.
This plugin filters the response from the API to include any content added via Genesis hooks.

Simply ask for a post in the standard way like /wp-json/wp/v2/posts/1 and you’ll get the extra content from the Genesis hooks.
