Install

No release zip yet. The repository archive installs, but the folder name will carry the branch suffix and updates will not flow:

wp plugin install https://github.com/ppfeufer/pp-wp-basic-security/archive/refs/heads/master.zip

Declares an update source (https://github.com/ppfeufer/pp-wp-basic-security), so updates arrive through the plugin's own updater.

Readme

WordPress Basic Security

Provides some basic security by removing WordPress's tendency to talk too much

[!IMPORTANT]

This plugin has been replaced by a more comprehensive solution.\ Use pp-wordpress-tweaks instead.



What Will Be Removed

  • Generator name and version number <meta name="generator" content="WordPress x.y.z" />
  • Blog Client Link <link rel="EditURI" type="application/rsd+xml" title="RSD" href="http://link.net/xmlrpc.php?rsd" />
  • Live Writer Manifest <link rel="wlwmanifest" type="application/wlwmanifest+xml" href="http://link.net/wp-includes/wlwmanifest.xml" />
  • Rest API Link <link rel='https://api.w.org/' href='http://link.net/wp-json/' />
  • oEmbed, so your own site cannot be embedded any longer
  • X-Pingback (XMLRPC will still work)
  • Emojis
  • Relational next/prev links
  • Shortlinks
  • RSS Feed
  • Version strings from all enqueued CSS and JavaScripts
  • Debug output from Enfold Theme (really, no one should have that stuff in their generated HTML ...)
  • WooCommerce Generator Tag
  • Canonical Links

What Will Be Changed

  • Youtube Embed gets a no cookie domain
  • Replacing the default login error message with something not so revealing

Minimum Requirements
