 * Hi,
 * when trying to call a method: localhost/api/posts/update_post/ without being 
   logged in to the system, I allways get the error: “Post not found.”. When I log
   in to the WP, then the call find the correct post.
 * how to use this method, without direct login to the admin panel.
 * I have installed the JSON API Auth plugin, and generated the auth cookie, but
   what next? Can I now make to this method (localhost/api/posts/update_post/) worked?
