I’m working on a plugin that captures some data from a non-logged-in user (such as a Like Button) and enters it into the database based on post_id.
My plugin works fine for logged-in users but non-logged-in users produces a “-1” response in AJAX.
I’m guessing this has to do with an authentication barrier for writing to the database but I’m looking for a way to work around that.
Any ideas?

I’m basing this off the Love-It AJAX plugin by Pippin. He says in the tutorial that this only works for logged-in users but I need to get this to work for non-logged-in users as well.
The
wp_ajax_{action}hook only fires for logged in users. For logged-out users the actionwp_ajax_nopriv_{action}is triggered on an ajax request – so you need to hook into that as well.
