That was it. Thanks.
The URL had http, but the WordPress URL was https.
I’ll outline what I did in case it can help others.
I could not change it from the Settings/General page because it would redirect me to the Godaddy domain manager. The Godaddy domain manager would only allow me to enter the site name and not the prefix “https”. I had to go into the WordPress database itself and manually edit it in two places (one for the “home” and one for the site).
Thanks.
Thanks Carolyn.
I disconnected and reconnected several times. No change. It states that it is connected. I contacted the hosting company and they do not restrict access to that file. They also checked the subscription widget and everything looks fine on this end. I tried to add a new email follower and now it is not sending the confirmation email to add the email (it used to do that).
Any help would be appreciated.
