Description

Following is the information regarding the API call for creating a category. I am passing an existing "category id" as "parent" but still the parent is being saved as "0" every-time. I also tried sending the category name in "parent" parameter but still the same response.

Web API reference URL : ​http://developer.wordpress.com/docs/api/1/post/sites/%24site/categories/slug:%24category/

Api call executed in code :

Request Parameter sent : " "name=wordpressCateg1&description=wordpressCateg1%20description&parent=253242504"

Response Text : "{"ID":257746312,"name":"wordpressCateg1","slug":"wordpresscateg1","description":"wordpressCateg1 description","post_count":0,

"parent":0,...}}}"
