Creating a default Custom Post Template that a Theme can override
I’m in the midst of building a WordPress Plugin that adds a custom post type, for which I’d like to include a default template to display. Essentially, this is an event management plugin, and the custom post type is for the Events. There’s a handful of custom meta fields, as well as a child post type (Performances), so without a default template to display them, using it would be pretty unfriendly. But I would like theme designers to be able to create their own templates for these post types if desired.
How to create a flexible abstraction for WP_Query?

I’ve chosen to make some of the taxonomies hierarchical because the method of inputting values (checking boxes) is more desirable for this site than the free-form input of non-hierarchical taxonomies. However, what I would really like is to be able to use radio button inputs instead of check boxes. Additionally, I’d like to remove the dropdown that is used to choose the parent item in the taxonomy.

Query WP REST API v2 by multiple meta keys
Using v2 of the REST API, I’m wanting to query some posts by multiple meta keys. With v1 I was able to format the url like &filter[meta_value][month]=12&[meta_value][year]=2015 and it worked (after exposing the meta values to the API).
