    I am trying to connect to my WordPress account via xmlrpc using a code snippets below: 

    
from xmlrpc.client import Transport
import wordpress_xmlrpc

class SpecialTransport(Transport):
user_agent = 'Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; WOW64; rv:54.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/54.0'

wordpress_client = wordpress_xmlrpc.Client('http://theghanaianamerican.com/wp-admin', 'xxxxx', 'xxxxxxx', transport=SpecialTransport())
ServerConnectionError: <ProtocolError for theghanaianamerican.com/wp-admin: 301 Moved Permanently>

    Using this approach:

    from wordpress_xmlrpc import Client, WordPressPost
from wordpress_xmlrpc.methods.posts import GetPosts, NewPost
from wordpress_xmlrpc.methods.users import GetUserInfo

wp = Client('https://theghanaianamerican.com/xmlrpc.php', 'xxxxx', 'xxxxxx')
wp.call(GetPosts())

    I get this error ProtocolError: <ProtocolError for theghanaianamerican.com/xmlrpc.php: 403 Forbidden>

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi there,

    I’m not sure I understand. You are trying to get an outside service to connect via XML-RPC? If so what is the name of the service so we can take a closer look?

    Thanks for the additional info!
