 * Hello,
 * i’m using the newest version 13.2.4 and get the error message
 *     ```
       Here is an error associated with Connecting WordPress Rest API
       Please Flushing rewrite rules or activate WordPress REST API for performance WP-Statistics Plugin Cache / Go Settings->Permalinks
       ```
   
 * Access to Rest API was/is disabled by an utility plugin and it seems, that this
   problem is the same like in the past (see [here](https://forums.classicpress.net/t/wp-statistics-plugin-not-working/1564)).
 * Kindly regards
 * Filout

 * Hi all,
 * I hope you’re doing well.
 * You should add the WP-Statistics endpoint to your cache plugin white list:
    /
   wp-json/wp-statistics/v2/
 * Best Regards

 * Hi [@reventon94](https://wordpress.org/support/users/reventon94/),
 * many thanks for your answer.
    The access to Rest API is blocked by the plugin
   _WP Cerber_. Here the access to Rest API is allowed to logged in users. As cache
   plugin is used_ WP Fastest Cache_.
 * Please could you tell me how to fix this issue with this plugin(s)?
 * Thanks in advance and greetings

    I don’t have 
   a cache plugin installed. It was working fine before 13.2.4 update. Please advise
   on how to fix this.

 * Hi,
 *  After receiving no understandable answer to this problem, I have simply deleted
   this plugin from all my sites and now I no longer have that message showing up
   on every page WB-admin pages.
    I now just use the JETPACK stats, but if WP STATISTICS
   ever makes an UPDATE excluding this problem, I would love to add it again.

 * [@reventon94](https://wordpress.org/support/users/reventon94/) pointed to the
   solution: with the W3 Total Cache plugin active, the WP Statistics plugin generates
   an error about the REST API. Adding /wp-json* to the pages that shouldn’t be 
   cached, solves the problem on my site
