Kjo shtojcë **s’është testuar me 3 hedhjet e rëndësishme të fundit në qarkullim 
të WordPress-it**. Mund të mos e mirëmbajnë më, ose mundet të mos mbulohet më dhe
mund të ketë probleme përputhshmërie, kur përdoret me versione më të freskët të 
WordPress-it.

## Përshkrim

Prevent your WordPress site from participating and being a victim of pingback denial
of service attacks. **After activation the plugin automatically disables XML-RPC.
There’s no need to configure anything.**

By disabling the XML-RPC pingback you’ll:
 * lower your server CPU usage * prevent
malicious scripts from using your site to run pingback denial of service attacks*
prevent malicious scripts to run denial of service attacks on your site via pingback

From sucuri.net:

> Any WordPress site with Pingback enabled (which is on by default) can be used 
> in DDOS attacks against other sites.

to check if your site is DDOS’ing other websites

#### Why Not Just Disable XMLRPC Altogether?

Yes, you can choose to do that, but if you use popular plugins like JetPack (that
use XMLRPC) then those plugins will stop working. That is why this small plugin 
exists.

I am removing this plugin from my sites, because WP admin is constantly full of 
huge “join our newsletter” (…) admin notices. Yeah, no, thank you …

Great plugin, super easy to install and just sits there doing it’s job. Very light
as well, so has no effects that I could see, on site speed or memory usage. Can’t
think of a reason why you wouldn’t be using this to be honest. Thanks for developing
it!

 [skyhound](https://profiles.wordpress.org/skyhound/) 3 Shtator, 2016

Unfortunately, it looks like this plugin is not effective anymore as I’ve had a 
few sites attacked with this plugin installed. Trying to manage though .htaccess
now. Wish someone would write something new to fix this.
