  Hi,

  I have been testing some functionality in our app which uses XMLRPC, and it appears that I’ve found a bug with how the “wp.getUsers” method works on WordPress.com blogs.

  Basically, the blog I’m testing this on has 3 administrators. Regardless of which one of those administrators’ credentials I use, whenever we call the “wp.getUsers” method we ONLY get details for the SAME user back. So to clarify, if we have 3 admins (‘admin1’, ‘admin2’, ‘admin2’), whenever ‘admin1’ queries for all users, they only get back ‘admin1’.

  I also tried adding a different role of user, specifically an author, and then used any of the above-mentioned administrator credentials to try and retrieve info on that author, but nothing is returned.

  It should be noted that all the above functionality works as it should on self-hosted blog, just NOT on WordPress.com blogs.
