WARNING! This extension will sneakily inject obfuscated yanz backdoor PHP scripts in your document root and will hijack your WordPress site. THREE of my customers websites were hacked this week and the ONLY extension that they all have in common that recently got installed is Disable XML-RPC-API. They literally have nothing else in common and they don’t know each other nor use the same theme nor even the same WordPress release. BE WARNED.

Any plugin that shoves global notices on every admin page to cross promote their other plugins, can have a one star review and get uninstalled. Bye.

Especially for anyone using WordPress in a professional context, e.g. for clients, this plugin is unusable without manually patching out some code
Particularly in the file wp-content/plugins/disable-xml-rpc-api/admin/admin.php, you will find the following:
add_action( 'admin_notices', 'dsxmlrpc_admin_notice_wpsg' );Which repeatedly, without any way to disable it permanently, shows an advertisement for a different plugin called WP Security Guard.
The ad says the following:

You can improve your website security by using WP Security Guard!Learn more
Remind Me Later
Not Intrested!
The option Not Intrested! did not disable the notification permanently. It came back.
I’m personally not against being contacted by the author of a plugin I actively use, in order to ask whether I might be interested in a more fully-featured professional product – because I legitimately might be interested, and we pay for a lot of our plugins – but nagging everyone in the admin panel, without being able to turn it off, for a product that isn’t even the same one, without mentioning it at the top of the plugin’s description page as a disclaimer before we install, crossed a line.
It comes across as unprofessional, without warning, so unusable in a professional context.
For users with a personal website looking to disable the notification permanently, they can do so via functions.php or a plugin for PHP code snippets with:
add_action( 'init', function() {
remove_action( 'admin_notices', 'dsxmlrpc_admin_notice_wpsg' );
}, 11);With this, I hope others are informed.
Three stars because, without this advertisement, it does what it says.

The repository is now full of garbage and this plugin is one of these.
Short things short – don’t install it just to prevent facing a problem at some point of time.
Long explanation will be omitted for good reason – just either take the note above, or ignore it on your own risk.
And a note to the author (which is mandatory) – at least remove the mess in .htaccess file you create on plugin deactivation and/or deletion!!

Thank you, a lot of attackers trying to access my site but with this, it will be hard for them to access

We installed this plugin thinking it was good, it slowed the website and dashboard down by over 5 secs. When we removed/delted it, the junk code still stayed in the .htaccess we had to remove it manually and from other places too. Our developer had the worse time with the amount of junk code it left behind, which slowed the dashboard down and the website too, even after removal the website stayed slow because of this plugins junk code! Do not install it, please.
Wordpress team please take note that this plugin is not healthy for any site and does not follow the proper removal processes.

Disables both xml-rpc and rest API. Easily customisable. Works well.

I setup a site on a budget. I used to use two plug-ins (which were good ones) and now I just use this one and a firewall to be thorough. It allows My inode data to stay down and My site manageable.
Thanks ??

The upgrade notice keeps coming back on every screen even after being dismissed. It looks very unprofessional to my clients and is embarrassing for me as a web developer, i would rather disable the plugin and use the code in a function.
It should be permanently dismissible via a cookie, like for other plugins. It might be ok once, when the plugin is first installed or updated, but after that, it should never appear again.

I don’t check my woocommerce product page every week, but today I noticed that the majority of Product Data Tabs were not displaying data … all due to this little plugin’s css
`.hidden, #accessibility {
height: 0;
width: 0;
overflow: hidden;
overflow-x: hidden;
overflow-y: hidden;
position: absolute;
background: none;
left: -999em;
I have since disabled this plugin.
Note: Decided I will remove this plugin all together as WP-Cerber has the functionality to BLOCK ACCESS from XML-RPC server
