Version Description
WP-3.4.0 Introduced. The optional $fields parameter specifies what fields will be included in the response array. This should be a list of field names. 'post_id' will always be included in the response regardless of the value of $fields. Instead of, or in addition to, individual field names, conceptual group names can be used to specify multiple fields. The available conceptual groups are 'post' (all basic fields), 'taxonomies', 'custom_fields', and 'enclosure'.
