Security snippets for WordPress
Snippets that harden WordPress: turn off XML-RPC, hide the version number, stop user enumeration, add security headers and block risky uploads. Small, reviewable changes for site owners who want fewer attack points without a heavy security plugin.
Restrict Unfiltered HTML to Administrators
Only administrators may save raw HTML such as scripts and iframes in posts. Editors get the same safe HTML filtering as authors.
WPIDE Team 6 installsHide the REST Users Endpoint From Subscribers and Customers
Blocks the REST API users endpoint for logged-in users who cannot edit posts, such as subscribers and shop customers, so a low-level account cannot list your authors and their usernames.
Limit How Many Files Non-Administrators Can Upload per Hour
Caps uploads at 30 files per hour for each user who is not an administrator, which limits the damage a compromised author account or a buggy front-end upload form can do.
Never Show Login Names as Public Display Names
When a user's public display name is the same as their login name (the WordPress default), switches it to their first and last name, or to a neutral name, so author bylines and comments do not reveal usernames.
Remove Usernames From CSS Classes
Strips the author and commenter usernames WordPress adds to body and comment classes, closing a quiet way to discover login names.
Stop Author URLs From Revealing Login Names
Gives new users an author URL slug based on their user ID instead of their login name, and adds a one-click fix under Users for existing accounts whose author URL shows their username.
