WordPress connection not authenticating

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Cerebrate 4

I can't seem to get the WordPress connection set up correctly. It shows a status of "Can't sign in.", and when I use "Fix connection", while it takes me to the WordPress API page which lets me approve access, clicking approve then closes that window without  success; the connection still shows as "Can't sign in".

 

Anyone else seeing this, or have thoughts on what the problem might be?

    Hi @Cerebrate,

     

    I did some test on my side, created a new connection, and updated the connection, but none of them had the same issue as you.

    Have you tried using a different WordPress account to create a connection?

    I recommend that you remove all exist WordPress connection first, then create a new connection, or use another account to create a connection to see if the problem persists.

    Please take a try and let me know if issue still exists.

    In addition, for the method of creating a connection, please refer to link:

    Best Regards,

    Barry

    I've tried both now (removing all WordPress connections - easy enough, since this is the first one I'm trying - and using a different, freshly-created WordPress account) without, unfortunately, success.

     

    I do have a longer error message to report, however:

     

     

    Thoughts?

     

    Thanks,

     

    Alistair
