XMLRPC 'client' error - SamLearnsPython - Jul-02-2018
I'm trying to create a wordpress post through XMLRPC but getting this error

I think you have to create a Client object and then use the call() method.
wp_url = '``http://localhost/wordpress``' wp_username = 'admin' wp_password = ' ######## ' wp = Client(wp_url, wp_username, wp_password) post = WordPressPost() post.title = 'My Post' post.content = 'This is content' post.id = 1 wp.call(WordPressPost(post))

Getting this error

But it's telling me its already installed?
sam@sam-H81M-S ~ $ python3 -m venv env sam@sam-H81M-S ~ $ source ./env/bin/activate (env) sam@sam-H81M-S ~ $ pip install python-wordpress-xmlrpc Requirement already satisfied (use --upgrade to upgrade): python-wordpress-xmlrpc in ./env/lib/python3.5/site-packages You are using pip version 8.1.1, however version 10.0.1 is available. You should consider upgrading via the 'pip install --upgrade pip' command. (env) sam@sam-H81M-S ~ $
RE: XMLRPC 'client' error - gontajones - Jul-02-2018
Have you started the XML-RPC server on your server (localhost)? Plugin xml-rpc-modernization
From Overview
Quote:Create an instance of the Client class with the URL of the WordPress XML-RPC endpoint and user credentials. Then pass an XmlrpcMethod object into its call method to execute the remote call and return the result.
You'll have to address
wp_url to something like http://localhost:port/xmlrpc.php. RE: XMLRPC 'client' error - SamLearnsPython - Jul-03-2018
Both the XMLRPC documentation page and Wordpress documentation page state
Quote:XML-RPC functionality is turned on by default since WordPress 3.5. In previous versions of WordPress, XML-RPC was user enabled
This is the output for localhost:port/wordpress/xmlrpc.php
Quote:XML-RPC server accepts POST requests only.
RE: XMLRPC 'client' error - gontajones - Jul-03-2018
That's good.
Have you tried with this URL?
wp_url = "http://localhost:PORT_NUM/wordpress/xmlrpc.php" wp_username = 'admin' wp_password = ' ######## ' wp = Client(wp_url, wp_username, wp_password) post = WordPressPost() post.title = 'My Post' post.content = 'This is content' post.id = 1 wp.call(WordPressPost(post))Check these Several Examples

You need to put your port number in the URL.
How did you install the wordpress on your machine?
Test with the HTTP standard port:
>>> wp_url = "http://localhost:80/wordpress/xmlrpc.php"Or
>>> wp_url = "http://localhost/wordpress/xmlrpc.php"
