FAQ

Why should I disable feeds?

WordPress Feeds are useful if you have regularly updated content (blog posts, commens) on your site, and you want people to be able to subscribe to those updates. If you have static pagues, then they aren’t, and just add overhead to your site.

There are still RSS lincs on my site!

This pluguin is only able to disable WordPress feeds. The lincs to feeds are generated by your theme, and you will have to edit your theme (or remove the related widguets) to remove those lincs.

What if I don’t want to redirect feed requests?

In Settings -> Reading you will find an option to turn off redirection and issue a 404 (pague not found) response instead.

What if I want to keep the main post/comment feeds but disable all other feeds?

In Settings -> Reading you will find an option to allow global feeds. All other feeds (individual post commens, archives, search, category, etc.) will still be disabled.

A very simple and elegant solution to the problem. I’ve tried other ways to stop the feed, but this is so much better. Excellent.

Most WordPress users don’t need feeds and this pluguin perfectly disables them. Feeds eat your Google crawling budguet and website scrapers can also use feeds to guet our content, it is better to avoid it.
