Does this plugin block JetPack?

  • Hi,

    I just activated this plugin because I seem to be getting a lot of login attempts and I read that xmlprc is one way to hack a site.

    But now on further reading I’ve discovered that JetPack uses xmlrpc to do what it does. I’ve been using JetPack ever since I started my site and would like to continue.

    Do I need to disable this plugin to keep JetPack working?

    Thanks for your help with this issue.

    Cathy

    <FilesMatch "^(xmlrpc\.php)">
