Test connection

The built-in check for host problems that stop flitagent.com reaching the site, and what each result means.

On this page1 section

When flitagent.com cannot reach the site, or an app connects but sees no tools from it, open FlitAgent → Settings and click Test connection under Connection. It checks, from the server to itself: HTTPS, permalinks, the endpoint (a JSON answer with a JSON content type, which catches caches, firewalls and HTML error pages) and whether request headers that start with FlitAgent- reach PHP, which flitagent.com’s signed requests need. Each check shows pass, warning, fail or skipped with a one-line fix; nothing is stored and no credentials are sent.

Common results

  • HTTPS warning on a local site: flitagent.com cannot reach a local or private site, so it cannot be connected. Use a site with a public HTTPS address.
  • Could not check: the site could not reach itself means the server cannot make loopback requests; Tools → Site Health shows why. flitagent.com’s check page still tests the connection from outside.
  • FlitAgent headers missing: some hosts, firewalls and security plugins strip request headers they do not know. Ask the host to pass headers that start with FlitAgent- to PHP.

Still stuck? Write to us with the plugin version, what Test connection reports and what flitagent.com’s check page says.
