 * My problem is that the plugin has requested this path → `/wp-content/plugins/
   custom-post-types//assets/dashboard-icon.svg` more than 200,000 times in the 
   last 30 days. The plugin is using my site’s IP to make these requests. How can
   I reduce the number of these requests or stop them completely?
