xmlrpc – IP

  • Hi

    I have this code in htaccess:

    <files xmlrpc.php>
order allow,deny
deny from all

allow from XXX
</files>

    Unfortunately, the application has stopped working – it does not go to add entries. XXX – this is my IP.

    The app is running locally, right? Thus using your IP. If it were running on a sever somewhere with a different IP, its access would be blocked.

    Have you confirmed your IP is still the same? Some ISPs will change your IP without warning. Consider specifying a CIDR range used by your ISP. It would mean others with the same ISP could also get access, but without proper credentials they still couldn’t do any damage. Trading a little less security for more convenience.

    If your current IP matches, especially if only add is non-functional, the issue is with the app’s use of xml-rpc, not .htaccess directives. A recent WP update may have altered what’s required for adding via xml-rpc?
