Description
Hi, I have attached a screenshot of what I see.
Website is ylift.com
I have tried deactivating all plugins and it doesn't work. It worked on a staging site so i synced them and once I did that the new production version kept the same error. I read somewhere about a forum that helped me change a line in the .htaccess file but that didn't work either. Another thing i tried was adding a must use plugin
My website is hosted by godaddy and they use myphp.

I am also having application password issues. When using a valid password/token I am getting password incorrect errors via the API. Downgrading from 6.3.2 > 6.3.1 fixed it.
Error code I get from API call that has correct password: 500 {"code":"incorrect_password","message":"<strong>Error:<\/strong> The password you entered for the username <strong>username<\/strong> is incorrect. <a href=\"https:\/\/example.com\/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword\">Lost your password?<\/a>","data":null}

Sorry you never got a proper response to this report. There have been no further reports of general problems with the application password feature, so I'm going to close this off as something that was likely caused by a caching issue, incorrect API usage, or something else on this particular site that was causing the functionality to break.
If the problem still exists and you can reliably reproduce it, please comment with some more details. Cheers!
