Can you check with your web host and see if ModSecurity is active, if so you can temporarily disabled it during Site Kit setup. You can also check that your WP REST API is enabled by adding the following to the end of your website address: `/?rest_route=/` * [@beherit](https://wordpress.org/support/users/beherit/) Can you open a new support ticket and we can hopefully assist. Very strange indeed about your sites, please add as much context to your support ticket for us to investigate. * [Renee Johnson](https://wordpress.org/support/users/reneesoffice/) * (@reneesoffice) * [6 years, 7 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/missing-parameter-verification_nonce/#post-12100070) * [@painlesshosting](https://wordpress.org/support/users/painlesshosting/) after review, we discovered your issue is a bug.

I was able to successfully install the Site Kit plugin. After that I reinstalled each of my other plugins one by one, and checking one at the time that they were working correctly when running together.

It seemed to function properly in all the ways I expected it to. I made it all the way to getting denied by Google AdSense. That isn’t an issue with Google Site Kit though. * On that note, an incredible feature for Google Site Kit would be to tell publishers the reason for the denial. Or even to include some kind of checklist or suggestions. In my beginner experience, I am completely lost as to why I can’t use Google AdSense. * Plugin Support [James Osborne](https://wordpress.org/support/users/jamesosborne/) * (@jamesosborne) * [6 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/missing-parameter-verification_nonce/#post-12212994) * [@karstenholmes](https://wordpress.org/support/users/karstenholmes/) Thats for the update. Good to know you can setup. * In relation to the AdSense module we are working on some improvements, and have some open GitHub issues we are prioritising, but totally agreed, improvements in the information for users would be beneficial.
