## Description

Hate Pingbacks and Trackbacks? Me too. Pingback Killer disables of of WordPress’
built in pingback functionality.

This is a very simple plugin that…
 1. Removes the `X-Pingback` header WordPress
sends 2. Causes any `bloginfo('ping_backurl')` call to return an empty string 3.
Hijacks the two options relating to pingbacks 4. Removes the /trackback/ rewrite
rules

There are no options pages, it just works.

Bugs? Problems? [Get in touch](http://pmg.co/contact).

## Installation

 1. Download the `pingback-killer.zip` file and unzip it
 2. Upload the `pingback-killer` folder to your `wp-content/plugins` directory
 3. In the WordPress admin area, click “Plugins” and activate Pingback Killer

#### A Note about Deactivation

After deactivating this plugin, you may have to visit the permalinks settings page
and hit “save” to get the trackback rewrite rules back.
