    Hi

    I need some help about my site Activefloor.com

    I did read a lot about this problem site_inaccessible HTTP 403 error, when I try to connect the Jetpack-plugin to my site.

    I did contacted the host, and they are note able to help me but they can see that there is some problem with the plugin:

    # Disable XML-RPC - Security > Settings > WordPress Tweaks > XML-RPC
<files xmlrpc.php>
<IfModule mod_authz_core.c>
Require all denied
</IfModule>
<IfModule !mod_authz_core.c>
Order allow,deny
Deny from all
</IfModule>
</files>

    Can You help me with this problem?
    Before all this I try troubleshooting by uninstall all of the plugin, and non of it helped.

    Jetpack uses your site’s XML-RPC file to communicate with WordPress.com. Unfortunately As you’ve noticed, access to that file is currently forbidden:
    http://activefloor.com/xmlrpc.php

    The code you mentioned above was added to your site’s .htaccess file, most likely by a plugin like iThemes Security (formerly Better WP Security). If you use that plugin, you can change the settings to allow access to XML-RPC under this menu:
    Security > Settings > WordPress Tweaks > XML-RPC

    Okay, but these settings is set to “Disable XML-RPC – XML-RPC is disabled on the site. This setting is highly recommended if Jetpack, the WordPress mobile app, pingbacks, and other services that use XML-RPC are not used.”

    So I realy don’t know what to do?

    That’s the correct setting. And as mentioned, you can’t use that setting if you use services like Jetpack, the WordPress mobile app, pingbacks, and other services that use XML-RPC.

    You’ll need to use the second option, “Disable Pingbacks”.
