About Disable RSS Feeds

Overview

Feeds expose your content to scrapers and add URLs search engines crawl, on sites that never wanted syndication in the first place.

Plan: Free. Everything on this page is in the free plugin.

Setup

  1. Go to WP Extended in your WordPress admin and find Disable RSS Feeds under Performance & Control.
  2. Switch Disable RSS Feeds on.
  3. There is nothing to configure. The module works as soon as it is on.

Questions and troubleshooting

Is Disable RSS Feeds free?

Yes. It is in the free plugin, with no settings to configure.

It isn’t working as expected

Check the module is switched on and its settings are saved. If another plugin does the same job, deactivate one of them. Then clear any page cache and test again. Still stuck? Pro customers can contact support; free users can post on the WordPress.org forum.
