# iOS WordPress posts not displaying

 * Hello
 * The iOS app hangs and will only shimmer, whatever the post status.
 * In brief, have restarted phone (to clear cache), reinstalled (version 21.4.1),
   logged out and back in and even updated all plugins including JetPlack still 
   via the desktop UI and I still cannot get any of my published, drafts or scheduled
   posts or in fact any category to display.
 * Re: [http://www.spindlelegs.co.uk](http://www.spindlelegs.co.uk/) – there are
   30+ live posts but still none will load. To add further fuel to the fire, tapping
   on the jump out link to the live admin responsive site from the app, launches
   the console in my mobile browser fine. In the browser, I can see all the posts,
   whatever their status.
 * Finally, I have other sites plugged into [wordpress.com](http://wordpress.com/)
   and I can see those posts whatever their status within the same iOS app. The 
   iOS app refuses to display any posts (makes me think there is a setting somewhere–
   but where?)
 * Any advice, links, tuts, processes you can recommend would be very appreciated.

 * Hello again
 * Have checked and doubled checked Jetpack. I cannot see an missed updates, or 
   missing authentication keys or any other sign in/up options – but still the iOS
   doesn’t want to co-operate. Any suggestions at all?
 * As a note, I have also shared my issues at wordpress.com who directed me here–
   so still pushing to get this resolved

 * Hi [@russellwebb](https://wordpress.org/support/users/russellwebb/),
 * Thanks for the detailed report.
 * This is likely due to a communication problem between Jetpack on your site (which
   is where requests for your site’s content from the app go to) and our servers.
 * While your site is publicly accessible, we cannot access your site’s XML-RPC 
   file, or more precisely, we’re not getting the expected response:
 * [https://spindlelegs.co.uk/xmlrpc.php](https://spindlelegs.co.uk/xmlrpc.php)
 * Jetpack and other plugins and apps use the WordPress XML-RPC API to connect to
   your site. It must return the following message:
 *     ```wp-block-code
       XML-RPC server accepts POST requests only.
       ```
   
 * You can see a working example here:
 * [https://wp.cloud/xmlrpc.php](https://wp.cloud/xmlrpc.php)
 * As a first series of steps here, I would recommend that you check the following:
    1. Can you see the `/xmlrpc.php` file at the root of your WordPress installation
       when accessing your site via FTP? If you don’t, then please try re-installing
       WordPress. You can do this by going to the Dashboard -> Upgrades page, then 
       clicking the “Reinstall” button.
    2. Do you use any security plugins that may block access to this file? If so, could
       you try to disable them? You might also want to check your site’s .htaccess 
       file for any rules that might be blocking access to the xmlrpc.php file.
    3. Does your hosting provider block access to this file? If you don’t find any 
       plugin that may block access to the file on your site, I would recommend that
       you get in touch with your host.
 * Let us know how that goes.

 * Hi there,
 * It has been more than one week since we have heard from you, so I’m marking this
   topic as resolved.
 * But if you have any further questions or need some more help, you’re welcome 
   to reply here or open another thread.

 * I had this issue too and went down the red herring path of messing with the xmlrpc.
 * Then I noticed on the top left of the Posts page on the Jetpack app, there’s 
   a downward-facing arrow that toggles between “Me” and “Everyone”. How is this
   useful?
 * I have no idea what the feature does, but I can’t see most of my own sites published
   posts when it’s set to “Me,” although it appears I can see them all when it’s
   set to “Everyone.”
 * I can’t find that feature documented in a web search, though this web page — 
   about the same symptom I was trying to solve — did come up in those search results.
