Retrieving Authors Name

[jaylaw81]

The getPosts / getPost calls, only return the author ID. Is it possible to have those mapped to return the actual author display name

You'll need to go through the wp.getUser API to get the display name. That functionality hasn't been implemented yet, but you can go through the generic client.authenticatedCall() for now. There's a PR that adds the user methods (#11), but it was waiting for an update. I'll work on getting that reviewed and merged.

If you need help getting the wp.getUser call to work before #11 is merged, just let me know and I'll put together some sample code.
