Enabling XML-RPC

XML-RPC functionality is turned on by default. If it's not enabled, you may follow these steps:

1. Click the Settings tab from the side navigation menu to the left.
2. Click the Writing from the sub-menu.
   
3. Locate the Remote Publishing section, put a check in the checkbox, and then click the Save Changes button.
   

   Important: If you no longer see this option in your Settings for Remote Publishing, it means that the Remote Publishing is already enabled by default. If in case you want to disable it, you need to install a plugin: Disable XML-RPC.
