    Hi

    This is an issue that only your host can resolve. Some hosts block this WordPress core file for security reasons i think.

    Hello Sir,

    I get also an “access denied….” error after many retries. When launching https://mydomainname.com/xmlrpc.php I get error code 403. Is there really nothing we can do about that ? If this is an issue with some hosts, I wonder how your great plugin idea will prosper ?

    Hi

    Are you going to the domain https://mydomainname.com/xmlrpc.php ?

    Note that mydomainname should be replaced with your website’s domain.

    If you still get the error message you will have to ask your host to enable access to the xmlrpc.php file.

    This file is a core component of WordPress but some inexpensive hosts disable access to help mitigate the risk of attack to their servers which are usually not up to date or very secure, hence the low price of hosting.

    In most cases if you ask your host can enable access to that core file
