<p>Every headless WordPress project requires the same setup: expose ACF fields to the REST API, configure CORS headers for your JavaScript frontend, and register a contact form endpoint.</p>
<p><strong>HWConnector Lite</strong> moves all of that out of functions.php and into a clean, tabbed admin settings page.</p>
<h4>Features</h4>
<p><strong>REST API Tab</strong><br />
* Expose ACF custom fields for post, page, and one Custom Post Type to the WordPress REST API<br />
* No PHP required — configure through the admin dashboard</p>
<p><strong>CORS Tab</strong><br />
* Add one allowed frontend origin (Next.js, Astro, Nuxt, etc.) through a simple field<br />
* Correct headers sent for GET, POST, and OPTIONS (preflight) requests<br />
* Origin-matched headers — only the requesting origin is echoed back</p>
<p><strong>Endpoints Tab</strong><br />
* <code>POST /wp-json/site/v1/contact</code> — accepts name, email, message and forwards to your admin email<br />
* Configurable namespace and send-to email</p>
<p><strong>Security Tab</strong><br />
* Disable XML-RPC with one toggle (default: ON)<br />
* Hide WordPress version from page source and RSS (default: ON)</p>
