    Thank you for making this very helpful plugin available.

    I get the following result in both regular and troubleshooting mode:
    Loopback request: The loopback request returned an unexpected status code, 503, this may affect tools such as WP_Cron, or theme and plugin editors.

    Any ideas?

    Hi,

    From experience, that is often caused by either a web-proxy (such as CloudFlare for example), or your hosts server setup (they may have their own blocks in place for various requests and so forth).

    It’s not something we can reliably determine from the plugin, but I had a quick look at your site, and I see that you’ve got both CF in place, and your hosts has various caching mechanisms running, both of these may be a factor.

    HTTP 503 means services unavailable, so I can’t say which party is the source, as they can both provide that status.
