This isn't as simply as switching serialize() to json_encode() (and vice versa) unfortunately.
JSON doesn't support associative arrays, which the API makes use of, all associative arrays are encoded as JSON objects.
PHP's
json_decode()has support to decode all objects to associative arrays as a result, but unfortunately the API makes use of both objects and associative arrays, so using that breaks the API response formatUnfortunately this means there's only really a few options:
plugins_api()andthemes_api()$argspresentmore on #5, it'd be us adding a wrapper around
json_decode()andjson_encode()and walking over the returned arrays and if aobjectitem is present converting it to an object, something like 25692.layer.diff
