Some people really like that WordPress sends pings from your own site to your own site when you write posts; it gives them a trail of related posts.
Some people do not like this behavior; it clutters up their comments.
This plugin disables intra-blog pinging.
Once activated, there’s nothing for you to do. However, head to Settings -> Discussion and you’ll find a field in which you can, if you wish, specify more domains that won’t be pinged. Why? Well, maybe you often refer to other sites that you maintain or, particularly, you run a multi-site and don’t want each blog pinging the other – specify a list here and you’re sorted.

No Self Ping

Keeps WordPress from sending pings to your own site.

Spammers target old posts in a hope that you won’t notice the comments on them. Why not stop them in their tracks by just shutting off comments and pingbacks? <a href="https://webberzone.com/plugins/autoclose/" rel="nofollow ugc">Auto-Close Comments, Pingbacks and Trackbacks</a> lets you automatically close comments, pingbacks and trackbacks on your posts, pages and custom post types.
You can also choose to keep comments, pingbacks, or trackbacks open on certain posts, pages or custom post types. Just enter a comma-separated list of post IDs in the Settings page.
An extra feature is the ability to delete post revisions or limit their number.
