Common Setup Issues Explained & Debugged

When setting up a WordPress Blog connection, we have to use ”WordPress Application Password” + ”WP Admin Username” from the WP Admin profile page –

https://yourwpsite.com/wp-admin/profile.php

In https://app.rankpress.io/dashboard/websites add your details accordingly. Password as provided in https://yourwpsite.com/wp-admin/profile.php with SPACES – xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx xxxx

Next, make sure you have a .htaccess file in your WP root directly with the following code:
# BEGIN WordPress
# The directives (lines) between "BEGIN WordPress" and "END WordPress" are
# dynamically generated, and should only be modified via WordPress filters.
# Any changes to the directives between these markers will be overwritten.
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteRule .* - [E=HTTP_AUTHORIZATION:%{HTTP:Authorization}]
RewriteBase /
RewriteRule ^index\.php$ - [L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress

And set your Permalink structure to ”Post name”

main img{
max-width: 100%;
}
