WordPress: How to disable XMLRPC

Alexey — Mon, 01 Nov 2021 17:05:21 +0000

You should open the .htaccess file in the main directory of WordPress and put a couple of strings of code like in example below.

<Files xmlrpc.php>
order deny,allow
deny from all
</Files>

Or you can open it for an IP address

<Files xmlrpc.php>
order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from 192.168.0.1
</Files>

add_action( 'category_row_actions',  'zl_actions_rows' , 10 ,2 );
public function 'zl_actions_rows' ( $actions, $category ) {
    $new_actions                         = array();
    $new_actions['edit']                 = $actions['edit'];
    $new_actions['template']             = '<a href="#" aria-label="' . __( 'Custom Link', 'zl') . '">' . __( 'Custom Link', 'zl') . '</a>';
    $new_actions['view']                 = $actions['view'];
    $new_actions['inline hide-if-no-js'] = $actions['inline hide-if-no-js'];

    return $new_actions;
}

How to disable WordPress feed with redirect to 404

Alexey — Sat, 30 Oct 2021 13:21:43 +0000

remove_action( 'wp_head', 'feed_links_extra', 3 );
remove_action( 'wp_head', 'feed_links', 2 );

add_action( 'do_feed', 'zl_remove_feed_and_redirect', 1 );
add_action( 'do_feed_rdf', 'zl_remove_feed_and_redirect', 1 );
add_action( 'do_feed_rss', 'zl_remove_feed_and_redirect', 1 );
add_action( 'do_feed_rss2', 'zl_remove_feed_and_redirect', 1 );
add_action( 'do_feed_atom', 'zl_remove_feed_and_redirect', 1 );
add_action( 'do_feed_rss2_comments', 'zl_remove_feed_and_redirect', 1 );
add_action( 'do_feed_atom_comments', 'zl_remove_feed_and_redirect', 1 );

function zl_remove_feed_and_redirect() {
    wp_redirect( esc_url( home_url( '404' ) ), 301 );
    die();
}

But I think the redirect should be on through Nginx, before a client-server. Actually, it is a correct solution
