  • Here is a fix for this problem. The issue is with your hosting account. Their is a feature in most hosting accounts which safeguard your site from potential hackers. Outgoing connections. It’s basically a firewall. You want the plugin to be able to use your hosting account to communicate with Ezinarticles.

    1. Go to your hosting account
    2. Locate your outgoing connection menu
    3. Under Recently Blocked Connections find ezinearticles.com
    4. Allow this connection

    If you can’t locate outgoing connections

    A. Contact your hosting provider for assistance
    B. Tell them you want to allow outgoing connections from Ezinearticles.com

    Good luck.

    Unless you have a dedicated IP through bluehost, you cannot make the outgoing connection. So this will not work for me.

    I’m sorry technical support at bluehost could not help you.

    Shared server hosting allows for most of the features of a dedicated server, but many providers restrict the use of important features in the Cpanel.

    My company allows for control by user of outgoing connections even with shared hosting.
