WPML Plugin – Unable to Send Translation, XMLRPC, icanlocalize Translation

[Nicolas Frias]

I have the WPML plugin for translating posts. When a post is translated, the ICanLocalize.com site send the translation back to my blog. If I activate BPS .htaccess security, this fails. I talked to ICanLocalize.com and they require access to http(s)://<my-blog>/xmlrpc.php and they send their IP is 74.50.54.21.
How can I add a rule to let them through? 
Many thanks,

Is WPML making a HEAD Request?  If so, try removing HEAD from this security filter in your root .htaccess file.  If this is not the problem then I need to know what the actual Query String is in the Request that they send back to your website.

UPDATE: BPS Pro 13+ and BPS 2.0+ versions have a feature called: Setup Wizard AutoFix (AutoWhitelist|AutoSetup|AutoCleanup) that automatically creates plugin and theme whitelist rules and automatically sets up and cleans up caching plugins htaccess code.

Actually this is a known issue/problem and the solution is here >>> http://wordpress.org/support/topic/problem-with-wpml-1?replies=4  You can add this skip/bypass rule to BPS Custom Code.  Add this skip/bypass rule to BPS Custom Code in the CUSTOM CODE WPADMIN PLUGIN FIXES: text box and activate BulletProof Mode for your wp-admin folder.

#For WPML Translations
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} page=wpml-translation-management/menu/translations-queue.php(.*) [NC]
RewriteRule . - [S=2]

Unfortunately the problem you address in your previous post is not the one I’m having. I can submit translations or do them myself, the links work fine, the problem is when the ICanLocalaze site tries to submit a translated post via XMLRPC .
Thanks.
