<p>Using WordPress entirely as a CMS (a <a href="https://medium.com/@jchiatt/headless-wordpress-with-react-d573bca02ee0" rel="nofollow ugc">Headless WordPress</a>) is a plausible option for people building web apps using technologies such as React JS or Angular JS to entirely build their front-end.</p>
<p>Doing this, the front-end (e.g. built with React) becomes decoupled from the back-end (e.g. WordPress). Since WordPress is being used strictly to manage and serve the content via REST API, the WP front-end becomes unusable and unnecessary – hence the term <em>“headless WordPress”</em>.</p>
<p><strong>This plugin essentially removes the front-end of WordPress.</strong></p>
<blockquote>
<p>Note that the REST API, and other non-front-end stuff should work as normal.</p>
</blockquote>
<h4>Features</h4>

<li>No settings page</li>
<li>Allows backend access</li>
<li>Allows REST API endpoints</li>
<li>Redirects (403 Forbidden) all front-end pages to the login page</li>
</ul>

<p>WordPress offers inbuilt support for custom 404 pages on all themes. But what about custom pages for other common errors like 401 and 403? You end up seeing a bland error page of the Web Server.</p>
<p>With this plugin you can easily create custom 401 and 403 error pages with any theme without writing a single line of code!!! And the best part is that you set it and forget it. Yes, you don’t have to do any changes even if you change themes. The heading and text you want on 401 and 403 error pages are displayed on the currently active theme.</p>
