    When I test push articles via xmlrpc in my site I realize xmlrpc stop working when I push about 10.000 post. After that I can push any other post, it’s said that my code has invailid token. Does xmlrpc deny access? How can I continue push article?

    Sory for my bad English!

    There’s nothing in WordPress itself that limits access to that file, but it’s entirely possible that a plugin or your hosting provider itself could be rate-limiting it for “security” reasons.

    Try deactivating all plugins. If that resolves the issue, reactivate each one individually until you find the cause.

    If that makes no difference, then I recommend contacting your hosting provider.

    I’ve try to deativate all plugin, change user, but it still deny. I post same article to another website in same hosting and it work, so I dont think that is hosting provider problem.

    I use python to post to wordpress site use xmlrpc. I try to post to another site in the same vps, it’s work, then I try to request post list from another site in same host, it’s work too. And I try to request post list from site which I can’t post article to, the same error happen. I post error here:

    Are there any entries in your server error log at the specific date/time you tried to use the script?

    I think I can try again and check log to find date/time, but what happen with date/time I use the script? I try with another domain on same host, I can push 23940 post. Number of post are different between two domain with same error.

    I’ve found that if I empty tables:
    wp_posts
    wp_postmeta
    wp_term_relationships

    I can continue push article to web.

    It’s hard to say, that’s why I’m asking for the error log entry that’s recorded when the script fails.
