 * Hi [@reventon94](https://wordpress.org/support/users/reventon94/)
 * I dont use any caching plugin but I was suspicious with WP Hide and Defender 
   plugins.
 * I disable both but it didnt fix the problem.
 * I am running the server behind Cloudflare. I also disable Cloudflare but it didnt
   fix the problem.
 * I am still cant see the reports on Statistics > Overview.
 * All I see is this error;
 * An error occurred while connecting to WordPress REST API. It seems blocked by
   one of your plugins or your theme.
