Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about API Write Blocker
No, as long as you whitelist the required routes (e.g., contact-form-7/v1/contact-forms) and Ajax actions (e.g., wpcf7-submit). The plugin is designed to safely allow necessary requests.
Yes. Many sites do not use REST-based write operations publicly. By default, WordPress allows unauthenticated POST, PUT, and DELETE calls which may be exploited by attackers. This plugin disables them unless explicitly allowed.
Yes. This plugin blocks only post-related XML-RPC methods and lets other functions like pingbacks or basic metaWeblog info pass, if desired.
Authenticated (logged-in) users are always allowed to execute requests. This plugin mainly protects against unauthorized, anonymous, or non-whitelisted users.
