A helper plugin for putting WordPress in "headless mode". Designed for when WordPress is the CMS for a headless/ decoupled WordPress site.

What This Plugin Does

This plugin blocks all requests to a WordPress site except for:

• wp-admin
• The WordPress REST API
• wp-cron (debatable)
• WP GraphQL

This is largely based on a code snippet from Jason Bahl of WP GraphQL.
