    Jetpack uses your site’s XML-RPC file to communicate with WordPress.com. Unfortunately we cannot access that file on your site at the moment; here is the response we get when trying to make a test POST query:

    <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//IETF//DTD HTML 2.0//EN">
<html><head>
<title>401 Unauthorized</title>
</head><body>
<h1>Unauthorized</h1>
<p>This server could not verify that you
are authorized to access the document
requested. Either you supplied the wrong
credentials (e.g., bad password), or your
browser doesn't understand how to supply
the credentials required.</p>
</body></html>

    If you use a security plugin to block access to the file, you’ll need to configure it to allow incoming and outgoing connections to /xmlrpc.php.

    If you do not use such plugin, you’ll want to contact your hosting provider and ask them if they currently block access to your site’s XML-RPC file.

    Also does this mean that my site is not publicly accessible in google , yahoo bing etc.?

    No, this only concerns the communication between your site and WordPress.com. It doesn’t indicate any issues with the communication between your site and search engines.

    I hope this helps. Please get in touch again if you have any questions.

    Thanks for the reply, It was because i have deleted the plugin yesterday that you cannot access that file on my site.

    Yes I have activated wordfance security plugin but after deleting the security plugin i still get the same problem.

    I now have reinstall jetpack plugin again, hoping you may want for the test / operation.

    Thank you

    The problem is still the same, I’m afraid.

    $ curl -A "Jetpack by WordPress.com" -is -H 'Content-Type: text/xml' --data '<?xml version="1.0"?><methodCall><methodName>demo.sayHello</methodName><params></params></methodCall>' 'https://suanlianpage.com/xmlrpc.php' && echo

    If you do not use another security plugin, I’d suggest getting in touch with your host to let them know about this issue.
