 * Your plugin removes the pingback tab from the comment section?
    I installed it
   but nothing happened 🙁
 * Pingbacks are disabled in the discussion option and disabled for each post but
   unfortunatelly this option keeps appearing.

 * No. That is not part of the plugin features.
 * From the description/readme:
 * > Features
   >  Removes the following methods from XML-RPC interface.
   > pingback.ping
   >  pingback.extensions.getPingbacks
   > Also removes X-Pingback from HTTP headers. This will hopefully stops some bots
   > from trying to hit your xmlrpc.php file.
