    Hello,

    is the plugin supposed to allow API access from an external source that do authenticate using Woocommerce API Key? I can’t make it to work.

    I wonder if the functionality could be easily added to your plugin or if there is a reason for it to not be present.

    Hi @mikele3,

    No it’s not a current feature of the plugin. The reason is that the plugin is purposely kept super simple as possible, from the homepage:

    This plugin does one thing: disables the WP REST API for visitors who are not logged into WordPress. No configuration required.

    This plugin works with only 22 short lines of code (less than 2KB). So it is super lightweight, fast, and effective. Features:

    • Disable REST/JSON for visitors (not logged in)
    • Disables REST header in HTTP response for all users
    • Disables REST links in HTML head for all users
    • 100% plug-and-play, set-it-and-forget solution
    • The fast, simple way to prevent abuse of your site’s REST/JSON API

    I hope that helps, let me know if I can provide any further infos.

    @specialk, thank you for your quick and clear reply.

    I like and most importantly trust your plugin, but I understand I’ll have to find an alternative for this project.

    Best regards.
