  Hi Good Morning,
  I am trying to link up with Hootsuite. I cannot seem to get my WordPress blog connected? They advised me to “

  The WordPress.org app for HootSuite supports WordPress.org sites V 3.4+.
  In order to support the HootSuite app, your WordPress site must be XML-RPC enabled. XML-RPC is not enabled by default in Version 3.4 but can be turned on by:

  Ticking the box for XML-RPC “Enable the WordPress, Movable Type, MetaWeblog and Blogger XML-RPC publishing protocols.”
  What does this mean? Where do I find this box to tick? I have looked under settings, tools, settings? Is it hidden under language that is not “user friendly’? Please advise. Thank you!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi cathysilver,

  It sounds as if you are trying to connect a self-hosted WordPress site with Hootsuite rather than a site on WordPress.com, but I’m not absolutely sure. Can you please provide a link to the site in question?
