Authorization header is missing

    Hi, I’ve recently created a blog site, and today in the Site health section, in the tips to improve it, I am written that:

    Authorization header is missing
    The authorization header is used by third-party applications that you have approved. Without this header, those apps cannot connect to your site.

    If you continue to see this alert after trying the actions described below, you may need to contact your hosting provider for further assistance.

    I wanted to understand what it is and how to fix it, I hope I wrote in the right section…

    The message says that a plugin you are using is apparently not completely configured. We can’t tell you which plugin it is because the message doesn’t say. You would have to find the responsible plugin and contact its support.

    @simtecnologic it should also have a link (“Flush Permalinks”) under the message – did you try clicking it?

    Here’s some more info about the error: https://digwp.com/2021/01/fix-site-health-error-authorization-header-missing/

    Hi, so it’s a plugin the problem, thanks for the help, I’ll check all the plugins, is there any way to figure out which one it is?

    You could disable them all and enable them one by one and then see if the message under Site Health changes. Or you can see from the plugin description that a plugin supports this authorization.

    @optimocha Hi, yes I tried, but nothing has changed, but I see now that it marks me as a bad link, but I don’t think it has anything to do with my problem… thanks, I will read the info
    @threadi I only have 12 active, I checked and they all seem fine, I could deactivate and reactivate them, as you said, but some so I have to redo all the settings, I preferred to avoid…

    You could use the troubleshoot-mode in this plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/health-check/ – this will disable the plugin only in your session, nothing will be lost.

    And also: backup everytime 🙂

    @threadi as soon as I open it, with theme and all plugins deactivated, it still marks that error in the site health

    @threadi and also always says with everything disabled, The scheduled event, fluentcrm_scheduled_five_minute_tasks, is late running. Your site is still working, but it could mean that scheduled articles or automatic updates may not work.

    but can also deactivated plugins cause problems?

    When a plugin is disabled, it cannot affect anything. However, I find it striking that you still see this cronjob “fluentcrm_scheduled_five_minute_tasks”. That should be gone then. If you are unsure about this cronjob, you should contact the support forum of the plugin responsible for it: https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/fluent-crm/

    If this has to do with the authorization header I can’t say, because I don’t know the plugin.

    @threadi Hi, ok for fluentcrm_scheduled_five_minute_tasks” I will contact responsible plugin support forum: https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/fluent-crm/
    But I don’t understand, with
    https://wordpress.org/plugins/health-check/
    as soon as I open it, with theme and all plugins deactivated, it still marks that error in site health, the
    Authorization header is missing
    how is this possible if everything is disabled?
    but by authorization header, what exactly is meant?

    I have read something about this again. It’s more a question of server settings. You should therefore contact the support of your hoster.

    @threadi ah understood, so I think it’s register.it, and not wordpress.org? I must say that this still confuses me, I just started creating the site…
    I thought I got wordpress hosting, but I don’t know where to contact them

    Wordpress.org does not provide any hosting. Here you can “only” download the software and get lots of info and documentation about it. Where you host your website, you should know – just from the invoices you should get from them. Since I don’t know your website, I can’t help you with that.

    @threadi ah true I didn’t write it, it’s this, it’s still very incomplete though, I’m still working on it https://simtecnologic.com
