Forum: WordPress Mobile App
In reply to: Unable to add self-hosted site in iPhone appThank you for the help @gautam23 and @alinclamba. Adding the
xmlrpc.phpin the website root directory as @gautam23 suggested worked! A few things to note:- I did enter
https://mysite.com/wordpresswhen I tried to add the site originally. Shouldn’t the app know to callhttps://mysite.com/wordpress/xmlrpc.php? - A previous version of the iPad app didn’t need
xmlrpc.phpin the website root directory. Presumably it worked with xmlrpc.php in the subdirectory. Going back to that behavior would be welcome. - I’d love to disable XML-RPC but it sounds like the WordPress mobile app still uses XML-RPC 10 years after the REST API was introduced. I don’t have the Jetpack plugin installed on my site. Is there another mobile app that uses the REST API? I only use the app to monitor and reply to comments, not to publish or edit posts.
I have the same problem with the iPhone app. I have a self-hosted site. The files are in a ‘wordpress’ subdirectory but the site URL is the website’s root.
If I add the self-hosted site in the iPhone app as
https://mysite.com, I get this error before I’m prompted for a login and a password:“Couldn’t connect. Required XML-RPC methods are missing on the server. Please contact your hosting provider to solve this problem.”
If I add the self-hosted site in the iPhone app as
https://mysite.com/wordpress, I get prompted for a login and a password, which suggests it’s the right URL, but I get this error after entering the login and the password:“Unable to read the WordPress site at that URL. Tap ‘Need more help?’ to view the FAQ.
Previously installed and configured WordPress app on an iPad is still working for the same self-hosted site. Apparently a previous version of the app worked fine in adding the site and the latest version still works once the site is added to the app. This error only comes in the new version of the app when adding a new site.

In reply to: [Login Security Captcha] Code change suggestion for V3Thank you for the fast release. May I offer another suggestion? Most of the bot submissions have g-recaptcha-response set to an empty string. We don’t need to verify with Google to know it’s invalid. If we add a check for the empty token, we save a call to Google and also avoid filling the error log with repeated bot submissions.
