## Descrición

JSON REST API and XML-RPC API are powerful ways to remotely interact with WordPress.

If you don’t have external applications that need to communicate with your WordPress
instance using JSON REST API or XML-RPC API you should disable access to them for
external requests.

In the standard WordPress installation JSON REST API and XML-RPC API are enabled
by default.
 In particular the REST API is turned on also for unlogged users. This
means that your WordPress instance is potentially leaking data, for example anyone
could be able to:

 * copy easily your published contents natively with the REST API (and not with 
   a web crawler);
 * get the list of all users (with their ID, nickname and name);
 * retrieve other information that you didn’t want to be public (such as an unlisted
   published page or a saved media not yet used).

Even if you could do the stuff by writing your own code using native filters, this
plugin aims to help you to control JSON REST API and XML-RPC API accesses from the
administration panel or programmatically by a simple API filter.

### Basic Features

 * **Disable REST API** interface for unlogged users.
 * **Disable JSONP support** on REST API.
 * **Add Basic Authentication** to REST API.
 * **Remove** REST `<link>` tags, REST `Link` HTTP header and REST Really Simple
   Discovery (RSD) informations.
 * **Setup trusted users, IP/Networks and endpoints** for unlogged users REST requests.
 * **Change REST endpoint prefix**.
 * **Disable XML-RPC API** interface.
 * **Remove** `<link>` to the Really Simple Discovery (RDS) informations.
 * **Remove** `X-Pingback` HTTP header.
 * **Setup trusted users, IP/Networks and methods** for XML-RPC requests.
 * **Show user’s access informations** in users list administration screen.

### Usage

Once the plugin is installed you can control settings in the following ways:

 * Using the _Settings->REST XML-RPC Data Checker_ administration screen.
 * Programmatically, by using `rest_xmlrpc_data_checker_settings` filter (see below).

### API

#### Hooks

**`rest_xmlrpc_data_checker_settings`**

    ```
    apply_filters( 'rest_xmlrpc_data_checker_admin_settings', boolean $display )
    ```

**`rest_xmlrpc_data_checker_rest_error`**

Filter JSON REST authentication error after plugin checks.

    ```
    apply_filters( 'rest_xmlrpc_data_checker_rest_error', WP_Error|boolean $result )
    ```

**`xmlrpc_before_insert_post`**

Filter XML-RPC post data to be inserted via XML-RPC before to insert post into database.

    ```
    apply_filters( 'xmlrpc_before_insert_post', array|IXR_Error $content_struct, WP_User $user )

## Instalación

This section describes how to install the plugin and get it working.

    or install the plugin through the WordPress _Plugins_ screen directly.
 2. Activate the plugin through the _Plugins_ screen in WordPress.

## Preguntas frecuentes

### Does it work with Gutenberg?

Yes

### Does it work on Multisite?

Yes

### How do I make REST requests using Basic Authentication?

In the _REST_ tab of plugin settings page you have to:

 * check **Disable REST API interface for unlogged users** option
 * select **Use Basic Authentication** in the _Authentication_ section
 * select users whom you want to grant REST access
 * save changes

This way, in HTTP REST external requests, users have to add `Authorization` HTTP
header.

In order to generate the `Authorization` HTTP header to use with Basic Authentication
you simply have to base64 encode the username and password separated by a colon.

Here is an example in PHP:

    ```
    $header = 'Authorization: Basic ' . base64_encode( 'my-user:my-password' );
    ```

[Here you can see several examples](https://gist.github.com/enrico-sorcinelli/d33b6889888e95f710bc50a2090a25cf)
in a variety of language.

Note that the Basic Authentication requires sending your username and password with
every request, and should only be used over SSL-secured connections or for local
development and testing.
 Without SSL you are strongly encouraged to to turn off
Basic Authentication in production environments.

This really is a great plugin. The only feature I would love to see is WP-CLI support.

 [bro007](https://profiles.wordpress.org/bro007/) 25 de Novembro, 2022

A very useful plugin that works well. The plugin helped close access to the JSON
REST API for unregistered users, and also nullified attacks on XML-RPC!

for nice plugin.
