 * Dear Community!
   Unfortunately, when editing my website, I encountered 2 errors:**
   The REST API encountered an unexpected result:The REST API is one way that WordPress
   and other applications communicate with the server. For example, the block editor
   screen relies on the REST API to display and save your posts and pages.When testing
   the REST API, an unexpected result was returned:REST API Endpoint: [https://www.mydomain.com/wp-json/wp/v2/types/post?context=edit](https://www.mydomain.com/wp-json/wp/v2/types/post?context=edit)
   REST API Response: (400) Bad Request———————————————————————————–Your site could
   not complete a loopback requestLoopback requests are used to run scheduled events,
   and are also used by the built-in editors for themes and plugins to verify code
   stability.The loopback request returned an unexpected HTTP status code, 400, 
   and it was not possible to determine if this will prevent features from working
   as expected.———————————————————————————–Unfortunately, I am not a developer, 
   so I don’t really know where to start in solving the problem. I have already 
   deactivated all the plugins and switched back to the default theme, but unfortunately,
   the problem has not been resolved.If anyone has experienced something similar,
   please share your experiences and possible solutions with me.Thank you in advance
   for your help!

 * If API and loopbacks fail with only a plain vanilla WP installation, the problem
   is external to WP, likely something about your server’s configuration. Often 
   some sort of firewall or security configuration needs modification. You’ll likely
   need your host’s assistance to resolve this.
