trying to Upload .rmd file to wordpress - html

Question

I'm having trouble uploading .rmd file to wordpress. I'm not exactly sure what's going on but the error suggests I don't have privileges to remotely publish to wordpress even though from what I understand Wordpress allows remote publishing even for free accounts. I've searched all the wordpress R queries on stack overflow and nothing seems to work. Here's my work flow:
devtools:::install_github("duncantl/RWordPress", force=T)
library(RWordPress)
# Set login parameters (replace admin,password and blog_url!)
options(WordPressLogin = c(admin = 'password'), WordPressURL = 'blog_url/xmlrpc.php')
library(markdown)
library(knitr)
options(markdown.HTML.options = c(markdownHTMLOptions(default = T),"toc"))
# Upload plots: set knitr options
opts_knit$set(upload.fun = function(file){library(RWordPress);uploadFile(file)$url;})
postThumbnail <- RWordPress::uploadFile("File.rmd",overwrite = TRUE)
That produces the following error:
Error: faultCode: 401 faultString: You do not have permission to upload files.
I also tried the following:
knit2wp('fake.rmd', title = 'TITLE', publish = FALSE)
And that produces the same error.

I'd also like to note, I checked the password and username and they're both correct (if I enter incorrect information I get a different error indicating that). I've also gotten a similar error trying user written functions:
Error: faultCode: 401 faultString: Sorry, you are not allowed to publish posts on this site.
By the way, when I run getUsersBlogs() I get:
$isAdmin
[1] TRUE
$isPrimary
[1] TRUE
$url
[1] "https://blogname.wordpress.com/"
$blogid

$blogName

$xmlrpc

As implied by #Lloyd Christmas, the problem is with your specification of options. If you change "WordPressURL" to "WordpressURL", you'll probably be fine.
