Fitbit sharing not connecting to Wordpress

[gmbolger]

I have tried (and failed) miserably to connect my fitbit account (Sharing / Wordpress but keep getting the same error message:

• Unable to link wordpress account. Wordpress error Not Found

Anyone know why this is and how to overcome this

Take a look at some of the suggestions in this thread.

Thanks but this doesnt address the issue.

I'm having issues connecting my WordPress.com account as well. My error says:

Please fix the following errors:

• Unable to link wordpress account. Wordpress error Moved Permanently

This continues to be a problem at the end of March 2015.   FitBit folks we need some serious help here.

Yes, I cannot link to my wordpress.com account either. And I do have a wordpress.com blog, not an external blog that is self hosted. The error I get is the "moved permenantly" one.

No, it doesn't address the issue. More of a work around.

I too get the same error (Unable to link wordpress account. Wordpress error Moved Permanently)

when I try to link my Wordpress blog using my username and password and yes I do have at least one blog!

I found this which may explain why:

Fitbit doesn't currently link to WordPress.com sites. You may be able to link it to a self-hosted, WordPress.org site, however.

If you're not certain of the difference between the two types of hosting:

Some users do use the tool "If This Then That" to add posts to their WordPress sites for certain actions on FitBit:

The word press error fix would be on their side not Fitbits.
