Why did you set the Rewrite rule then?

* In your screenshot I can see both `Oauth` and basic auth. Don’t use more than
one, that will not work. Also do change the secret keys or next time obfuscate
them in the screenshot.
* In general your REST API seems to be down: [https://d.pr/i/pFIjLL](https://d.pr/i/pFIjLL)–
I get a 404 on [http://bulkwholesale.com/wp-json/wc/v2](http://bulkwholesale.com/wp-json/wc/v2)

* Hi again,
* Yes, now it is loading(better), but I still get a bunch of errors: [https://d.pr/i/wVGZDW](https://d.pr/i/wVGZDW)
* * Remove `wp-content/plugins/monit.php`.
* Remove any additional constants from
your `wp-config.php`.
* Afterward check again. It must look like this: [https://d.pr/i/scfbeI](https://d.pr/i/scfbeI)
