TrimPress

Description

TrimPress optimizes and trims some of the cruft from WordPress for a lighter, more secure theme!

Features

  • Slow down the Heartbeat API to save on admin-ajax usage.
  • Disable cart fragments, a resource-intensive WooCommerce script (TrimPress automatically detects WooCommerce and only shows this option if it is active).
  • Remove unnecessary clutter from the WordPress section, like RSS, RSD, WLW manifest and adjacent post links.
  • Disable the built-in WordPress code editors that allow users to modify plugin and theme code.
  • Limit post revisions, which can cause unnecessary database bloat.
  • Disable automatic emoji rendering, which adds several extra scripts and styles to your site.
  • Disable the XML-RPC interface, an older system for remote WordPress access that can be exploited by hackers.
  • Remove the meta generator tag and version url parameters that let potential attackers know what WordPress version you’re using.
  • Disable comment autolinking, a feature often exploited by spammers.

Changelog

1.1

  • Fixed bug with heartbeat setting.
  • Simplified and refactored some of the code, and improved mobile styling.
  • Added extra Save button at top of settings page.
  • Removed the disable oembed functionality, which was no longer effective. Changes in how WordPress handles embeds means disabling this functionality is more complex and the consequences more far-reaching. If users really want to disable this functionality, consider a dedicated plugin like Disable Embeds.

1.0.1

  • Added full translation support.

1.0.0

  • Initial release.
