I have WP configured as https in its configuration. I ended up using another similar plugin that does not have this issue. Thanks anyway.

Sounds great. I will keep an eye out for an update. I am building out a genealogy site for a non profit and would love to link up.

Well, that is interesting.

I am not sure where you are getting your information, but 192.0.82.193 does belong to Automattic.

Yes, I know I can disable xmlrpc. That is not the question here, so let’s not get off topic. You sort of answered my question indirectly by letting me know that jetpack uses xmlrpc. Logically, this means that automattic is pinging my site looking for jetpack which I do not have installed.

So, basically what I am extrapolating from our conversation is that: 1) I removed jetpack from my site, 2) jetpack needs xmlrpc, 3) an automattic server may be calling my site looking for jetpack that I removed, 4) automattic server can’t find it then pings my server aggressively, 5) this led to my firewall blocking an automattic ip 6) and I can safely remove xmlrpc becasue Woocommerce does not need it.

Thank you, in a convoluted way I got my questions answered.

I changed the review to 3 stars for now since you all were responsive to my complaint. Once I turned jetpack off, I can actually focus on the process of building out a store and the payment gateways.

Jetpack was really off-putting, I would suggest maybe tone it down and let the users discover it on their own terms instead of pushing it as a glaring advertisement in my admin area. I may play with it later, but I am not liking that it is tied to the mother ship collecting data.

Now that I am testing the woocommerce plugin and tightening up my secrurity, it is interesting that I am getting hammered from an automattic ip address trying to break into my site via xmlrpc. I will assume the ip is being spoofed. – screenshot

I am reading that the woocommerce plugin is using Rest API. So I will also assume it is safe to disable xmlrpc with no issue if I decide to go live with woocommerce.

Thank you for pointing me in the direction regarding the payment plugin. Yes, I am looking at the woopayments option and will play around with it. I have absolutely no problem with you all monetizing that way through partnerships. The obnoxious and annoying jetpack advertisements in my admin area was a bit alarming.

Thank you for getting back to me and the link to the guide.

For the cost of plugins, I might as well just go with a pay service which is much more streamlined and I don’t have to waste time building a secure site from the ground up.

Regarding the WooPayments plugin, I really do not like that I have to stay connected to WordPress dot com to use the commerce payment gateway. Even the guide you gave me is pushing jetpack so the writing seems to be on the wall where you all are heading. I know you are trying to monetize, but let the powers that be know that the intrusive nag ads are a total turn off and pushed me into looking at other avenues and other CMS’s with less headache. I would rather just give you a percentage of sales than have to jump through all the plugin muck.

Sorry, I’ve already removed the plugin and I have no interest in giving my time to work on google bugs for free.

Try adding this to your functions.php file.

add_action('wp_logout','ps_redirect_after_logout');
function ps_redirect_after_logout(){
         wp_redirect( 'your redirect here' );
         exit();
}

I am having the same issue as well.

I am having the same exact issue.

The “courses” links showed up in the left bar until I clicked on the link. I then got an “invalid post type” error and the “courses” links disappeared in the left column.

I reinstalled both the plugin and pmpro still no “Courses” in the left column.

I have also reinstalled WP with fresh with no other plugins activated and still the same issue.
