Pretty simply, this plugin uses the built-in WordPress filter “xmlrpc_enabled” to disable the XML-RPC API on a WordPress site running 3.5 or above.
Beginning in 3.5, XML-RPC is enabled by default. Additionally, the option to disable/enable XML-RPC was removed. For various reasons, site owners may wish to disable this functionality. This plugin provides an easy way to do so.

Disable XML-RPC


Dead simple as it should be. Nice, thank you for that.


Reduced to perfection

Disables the XML-RPC API in WordPress 3.5+, which is enabled by default.

Simple plugin that disables XML-RPC, since it is enabled by default on WordPress 3.5 and above. It also removed references in the headers and in the body of the html.
