 * Hi there,
 * I think it would make sense if disabling xml-rpc to also get rid of the ‘discovery
   links’ which may attract the hackers to try xml-rpc on your site.
 * remove_action(‘wp_head’, ‘rsd_link’);
    remove_action(‘wp_head’, ‘wlwmanifest_link’);
 * See [http://www.themelab.com/2010/07/11/remove-code-wordpress-header/](http://www.themelab.com/2010/07/11/remove-code-wordpress-header/)
 * There is this plugin, but would be better to do it in one go since it is just
   a line or two of code.
