To Fix WordPress Port 80 443 Wp HTTP Error: Hello wordpress user! Yesterday I’ve faced a problem in my wordpress dashboard, my wordpress website was unable to connect with wordpress.org service anymore. In my dashboard WordPress news was showing an error which was like this (the picture is given below- “RSS Error: WP HTTP Error: cURL error 7: Failed to connect to planet.wordpress.org port 80: Connection timed out”). After this problem I was unable to Install any plugins and themes of wordpress.org however I was able to install plugins and themes by uploading them. Jetpack is also not getting connected to wordpress then i realized its really a big problem and I must have to fix it.
“RSS Error: WP HTTP Error: cURL error 7: Failed to connect to lanet.wordpress.org port 80: Connection timed out”
“RSS Error: WP HTTP Error: cURL error 7: Failed to connect to planet.wordpress.org port 443: Connection timed out”
First, I was thinking this is an Error of WordPress service so I am unable to connect with wordpress.org service, I was thinking this problem is not a big issue and it will gonna solved automatically by wordpress team.
