WordPress App help
-
Hi, I have a problems with with my site on the app (free account).
It say required XML-RPC are missing on the servers?
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)
-
Hi there,
What is the URL of the site you’re trying to manage through the app?
XML-RPC is automatically enabled for all WordPress.com sites, so to manage the site http://deathmagnetmusic.wordpress.com/ or any other WordPress.com site in your account through the app, all you need to do is log into the app using your WordPress.com username and password.
-
I cannot log into the app because that message comes up. It’s weird because I didn’t have this problem a few weeks ago.
-
Are you trying to log into the app using your WordPress.com username,
musicbyantonyshute, and password? Or are you trying to log into a stand-alone WordPress site using that site’s admin username and password?If it’s the latter, please give the URL of the site you’re trying to log into.

Musicbyantonyshute and password
But I was given access to another website on it. Would this affect it?
-
If you log in using your WordPress.com account username, you’ll only have see sites that your WordPress.com account has access to, and those are:
What is the other website? If it’s a stand-alone WordPress site and you tried adding it to the app, you could be seeing the error related to that site.
-
Yeah but if I try to log in to access those three sites I can’t as it says the message I described.
-
Because your attempted login for the other site might be stuck in the app’s cache. That’s why I’m asking for that site’s URL so I can check if there might be anything preventing that site from being added to the app.
Is this on Android? If so, open Android settings, and go to App Settings. Look for the WordPress app and tap on it. Tap on Storage, and delete all stored data in the app. Then completely restart your device, and try logging in again.

https://deathmagnetmusic.wordpress.com/? That’s a WordPress.com site, so you should not be seeing any XML errors related to that site.
I don’t think iOS has a way to clear all app data the way Android does, but deleting and reinstalling the app should have the same effect, so please try that.

Would you be able to take a screenshot of the login page and the error and share it with us? You can use an online tool for that (such as https://snag.gy), or follow the instructions described here:

Thanks!

I know I have a second Death Magnet website there but most of my stuff is on the musicbyantonyshute one

Thanks for the link. There are two ways to add your sites to the WordPress app, one for self-hosted WordPress.org sites and one for WordPress.com ones.
From the screenshot, it looks like you’re trying to add the WordPress.com site as if it was a self-hosted one and that’s why it’s not working.
That being said, to manage your WordPress.com site on the app, you’ll want to log in with the username (or email address) and password for your WordPress.com account. No need to add the site URL as all your WordPress.com sites will be displayed there.
Here are some more details about that:
I hope that helps but let me know if you still have issues.
