 * On installing jetpack and trying to connect to WordPress.com to setup a site 
   inaccessible 403 error results : Your website needs to be publicly accessible
   to use Jetpack: site_inaccessible
 * Error Details: The Jetpack server was unable to communicate with your site.
 * The site is public and accessible. The permissions have been checked and are 
   all correct. We do have a WordPress.com account already which is working.
 * The hosting provider is names.co.uk (namesco) . We understand they block xmlrpc.
   php as described here: [http://www.thebambers.me.uk/wordpress/?p=308](http://www.thebambers.me.uk/wordpress/?p=308)
 * We have followed these instructions which have not resulted in jetpack working,
   but has allowed postit and the WordPress iPhone app to work.
 * Namesco suggested posting here to ask if there are any other referenced to xmlrpc.
   php which would need renaming, and which files to look in.
 * Any help would be very much appreciated!

 * Hi there,
 * The WordPress.com server-side application that Jetpack talks to requires /xmlrpc.
   php be available, as of now. The fix described at the URL you mention will not
   fix Jetpack currently.

 * WordPress for iOS work with above fix. Why not Jetpack. did the developers thought
   about manual override?

 * Same problem here – I can confirm that although the bug affecting xmlrpc is now
   six years old, Namesco absolutely will not allow even a single user to have this
   block lifted.
 * WordPress for Android and iOS are able to reference xmlrpc without it having 
   to specifically address the xmlrpc.php file, can the Jetpack server not do the
   same?
