 * Hi André,
 * I have WP REST API, WP REST API Custom Fields and Advanced Custom Fields installed,
   but the custom fields I have set up are not showing in the JSON. Do I need to
   add or alter code somewhere? You claim “This plugin works straight out of the
   box.” 🙂
 * Kind regards

 * The Installation notes:
 * > This plugin works straight out of the box.
   > Upload plugin-name.php to the /wp-content/plugins/ directory
   >  Activate the 
   > plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
 * That implies it does *not* require the WP Rest API plugin (which, apparently 
   will be merged into CORE with 4.5) nor does it require Advanced Custom Fields.
 * Is this the case?
