Hi Sheena,
This error comes does come from Easy Digital Downloads and it is displayed because EDD has detected that ajax may not be working properly on your site.
Does the notice go away if you deactivate all other plugins?
No the notice does not goes away when I deactivate all other plugins, but it does go away when I deactivate the Easy Digital Downloads plugin. Is the any thing in the Easy Digital Downloads settings I could change to fix this?
Here is a link to the website http://theletter.ie
Many thanks for getting back to me on this.

The notices does not necessarily mean there is a problem, it just means there might be a problem.
To determine if everything is working fine, test the purchase process in EDD. If everything works properly, you can safely dismiss the notice.
Hi Pippin
What does EDD stand for not sure what you mean there? I don’t think I have a problem there. My main issue is I can’t add categories in my posts section this issue only started when the error “Your site appears to be blocking the WordPress ajax interface’ comes up.
Not sure if it is related to the error or just happened at the same time maybe you can help?
Thanks
Sheena
EDD = Easy Digital Downloads.
That error will not be preventing you from adding categories. That’s probably caused by something else on your site. Try deactivating your other plugins and see if that resolves the issue.
Hi Pippin
Okay maybe adding categories in another issue, but below are the main issues we are having with EDD;
1. In the downloads when I have added a new download I click on upload a file and it takes me to the “Insert Media” page. None of the files are appearing in the “Media Library” Tab I have clicked on the “upload files” tab and added the file there but it then won’t allow me to click on the “insert into download” button
2. In the Post I click on “Insert Download” and it opens the form but when I click on the top down and type in the download “Mic” the dowload I am looking for does not appear.
I hope you can help please.

It sounds like you definitely have a conflict with another plugin or your theme.
Does it work if you activate the default Twenty Fifteeen theme and deactivate all other plugins?
Okay I have activate the default Twenty Fifteen theme and deactivate the plugin one by one still now joy, have you any other ideas I could try.
Could it be something to do with .htaccess File?
Sheena
For the files that are not appearing in the media library, are these files that you uploaded via FTP?
No, the files and being uploaded by WordPress dashboard into media library.
Sheena
Perhaps I’m misunderstanding the problem.
Could you show me screenshots that illustrate it?
Hi Pippin
We only starting having problems with the EDD plugin when we updated the WordPress to 4.2.2 software and all plugins
I have set up a test download on a post for you to show you so if you go to this link
http://theletter.ie/issue-38-autumn-2006/
Press the test button and you will see that it will not activate. The button above it was set up before the update and was working and not it is not working now.
Hi Pippin
I think I have finally fixed the issue, I got the hosting company to check all the files again and we found that there was an incorrect permission set up on the Admin Ajax file and that is now fixed.
Sorry for taking up you time this issue, I just could not find what the issue is.
And I have say EDD is a great plugin and if you want me to give it a good rating let me know. Just send me the link.
Thanks
Sheena
