Deaktiver

WordPress plugin to disable default features you do not need (RSS, comments, jQuery, posts/blog, etc.).

Settings

You can use the plugin options page, or a theme config file for a more accurate setup that avoids a database call:

{theme}/config/deaktiver.php

Example:

<?php

return [
    'emoji' => true,
    'embed' => true,
    'feed' => true,
    'xmlrpc' => true,
    'jquery' => true,
    'jquery-migrate' => true,
    'version' => true,
    'powered-by' => true,
    'wlwmanifest' => true,
    'rsd_link' => true,
    'short_link' => true,
    'rest_link' => true,
    'comments' => true,
    'posts' => true,
    'rest_user' => true,
    'login_url' => true,
    'login_lang_selector' => true,
];

true means the feature is disabled.
