 There is a [[https://github.com/WPTRT/theme-sniffer/issues/80|ticket]] on
 github which shows that if a WordPress is installed in a subfolder, the
 rest route registered in a plugin won't work properly. I tested it on my
 own test server.

 I have a root installation and a test installation in a `test` subfolder.
 I installed the theme sniffer on the test installation, and when I try to
 run it (I've rewritten it so that it uses `REST` instead of `admin-
 ajax.php`), and the route it tries to fetch is `https://mydomain/wp-json
 /theme-sniffer/v1/sniff-run`, when the correct route should be
 `https://mydomain/test/wp-json/theme-sniffer/v1/sniff-run`

 The routes are added in the plugin like this

 {{{#!php
 <?php
 add_action( 'rest_api_init', 'theme_sniffer_endpoint_init' );
 /**
  * Register endpoints function
  *
  * @since 0.1.0
  */
 function theme_sniffer_endpoint_init() {
         register_rest_route( 'theme-sniffer/v1', '/sniff-run', array(
                 'methods'  => 'POST',
                 'callback' => 'theme_sniffer_run_sniffer',
         ) );
         register_rest_route( 'theme-sniffer/v1', '/individual-sniff',
 array(
                 'methods'  => 'POST',
                 'callback' => 'theme_sniffer_individual_sniff',
         ) );
 }
 }}}

 I haven't dug deeper but is this normal behavior?
