Beschreibung
Every plugin and theme you install registers REST API endpoints. Most are public by default — including the ones your site never uses.
Unused endpoints are unnecessary exposure. They reveal information about your stack, invite probing, and become liabilities when a vulnerability is discovered in a plugin you forgot to audit.
WPBuoy Endpoint Manager gives you a clear view of every endpoint on your site and a one-click toggle to disable the ones you don’t need.
See your full API surface
Every endpoint from WordPress core, plugins, and themes in one organized view — grouped by namespace, with a count of how many are currently disabled.
Block endpoints instantly
Toggle any endpoint off and it returns a 403. No code, no rules, no guesswork. One click.
Preview before you block
Open any endpoint’s live response in a new tab before making changes. Know exactly what you’re disabling.
Clean and accessible
Built to WordPress admin standards. Fully keyboard-navigable with screen reader support.
Who it’s for
Agencies hardening client sites. Developers locking down staging environments. Site owners running WooCommerce, membership, or any setup where API exposure is a real risk.

FAQ
-
Will disabling endpoints break my site?
-
Disabling certain endpoints may affect WordPress functionality, plugins, or themes that depend on the REST API. Always test thoroughly after making changes. We recommend testing on a staging site first.
-
Can I manage endpoints from plugins and themes?
-
Yes. The plugin shows all registered static REST API endpoints, including those from plugins and themes.
-
Does this plugin work with WordPress multisite?
-
Yes, but the plugin must be activated on each site individually. Network activation is not currently supported.
