Request: Update WordPress connection method

Status: Closed · Asked by mustafamohsen on · 0 views

According to connection instructions, Pabbly Connect requires "WP-API/Basic-Auth" plugin, which is self-hosted on Pabbly's domain rather than WP.org
This raises some big concerns. The plugin's github repository shows that it was last updated 7 years ago, and their website says it's discontinued
No sane IT professional will install such a plugin on a production site, whether it's for security or compatibility concerns. I hope you consider that

Kindly, use this plugin WordPress REST API Authentication instead and remove the older plugin.

Select the Basic Authentication Method while configuring the above plugin settings.

That will work for you. Also, check and remove any restrictions on our IP: 44.224.102.169 imposed in your .htaccess file hosted on your server.

We will update the instructions related to the older plugin.
