1.0.0

  • We need help with testing, specifically why the services are not connecting to the APIAPI An API or Application Programming Interface is a software intermediary that allows programs to interact with each other and share data in limited, clearly defined ways. after the latest merges to upgrade WordPress
  • When starting the services locally they appear to authenticate with the API but when something is added to the queue it never is picked up for the audit by the service
  • Everything worked prior to upgrading WordPress
  • Alternatively it could be something is wrong with the connection to the local MonogDB instance that the queue is polling from, but this seems less likely
  • So if you’re able to pull down the lastest master branches and test locally to help triage that would be AMAZING. Help, please.
