So the Wordpress xml-rpc is disabled by default for security reasons in the app installed via marketplace; that’s great. But I need it to post via the Wordpress app. Does anybody have a clue as to how to do this?

That worked for me too. For testing purposes, what is the command to renable xml-rpc blocking?
Thanks a lot :) You saved my day
