 * Hi [@kezily](https://wordpress.org/support/users/kezily/),
 * Thank you for your message. Do you have the REST API available on your site?
 * The problem is that you probably have blocked access to the REST API. Check it
   please.

 * Hi, [@mateuszgbiorczyk](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mateuszgbiorczyk/)
 * I have the same problem and the REST API isn’t disabled on the website. I’m getting
   this error (in the console):
 *     ```
       jquery.js?ver=1.12.4-wp:4 POST https://bareminds.local/wp-json/webp-converter/v1/paths?_wpnonce=93acac81b7 403
       send @ jquery.js?ver=1.12.4-wp:4
       ajax @ jquery.js?ver=1.12.4-wp:4
       value @ scripts.js?ver=1.0.5:1
       value @ scripts.js?ver=1.0.5:1
       ```

 * Hi [@mateuszgbiorczyk](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mateuszgbiorczyk/),
   
   I have the REST API available on my website. The message error appears when regenerate
   progress is at 34%.

 * Can you take a screenshot of Dev Tools in Chrome _(select the given query and
   show the `Response` tab)_?

 * If you had an error: `"The site is experiencing technical difficulties."` then
   you must have an error in `debug.log`.

 * The debug.log is empty.
 * The error “The site is experiencing technical difficulties.” is only shown on
   the console.

 * In that case, you probably have a server configuration error.
 * WordPress always adds an entry to `debug.log` file with this error.
