Overview

Keep your WordPress site clean and secure! Wonderful Secure Cleanup provides a simple interface to disable unnecessary and often risky core features.

This plugin helps you harden your WordPress installation by reducing the attack surface. It selectively disables functions like comments, XML-RPC, pingbacks, and RSS feeds. By blocking risky endpoints like xmlrpc.php and feed URLs, you can significantly reduce spam and automated attacks, leading to better security and improved performance.

It is the ideal tool for business websites, landing pages, and any WordPress setup that doesn’t require legacy blogging functionality.
