What the plugin does
Plugin capabilities
- Blocks unauthorized POST, PUT/PATCH, and DELETE requests on the WordPress REST API with independent method-level controls.
- Disables specific write-related XML-RPC methods (e.g., wp.newPost, metaWeblog.editPost) while allowing harmless calls like pingbacks to remain active.
- Protects Admin-Ajax endpoints by blocking sensitive write actions (e.g., save-post, upload-attachment) for unauthenticated users.
- Supports route and action whitelisting via prefix matching to allow legitimate integrations such as Contact Form 7 submissions.
- Provides IP whitelist functionality including CIDR range support to permit trusted external clients or systems.
- Automatically allows all write operations for authenticated users without requiring additional configuration.
- Enables custom HTTP status codes and error messages for blocked requests across REST, XML-RPC, and Admin-Ajax interfaces.
TRANSLATION BOUNDARY
API Write Blocker capabilities and translatable content are documented separately.
Official documentation describes the plugin functionality, but does not currently identify specific text shown to visitors that can be translated.
