Someone has asked me a question “How to Disable RSS Feed on WordPress website” so that anyone can’t see the RSS feed of the site. Instead of RSS feed, he wants to display the custom message “No feed available, please visit the "http://www.domain-name.com".
Open your functions.php file from current activated theme’s folders and copy paste below code at the end of the file.

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 |
function itsme_disable_feed() { wp_die( __( 'No feed available, please visit the <a href="'. esc_url( home_url( '/' ) ) .'">homepage</a>!' ) ); } add_action('do_feed', 'itsme_disable_feed', 1); add_action('do_feed_rdf', 'itsme_disable_feed', 1); add_action('do_feed_rss', 'itsme_disable_feed', 1); add_action('do_feed_rss2', 'itsme_disable_feed', 1); add_action('do_feed_atom', 'itsme_disable_feed', 1); add_action('do_feed_rss2_comments', 'itsme_disable_feed', 1); add_action('do_feed_atom_comments', 'itsme_disable_feed', 1); |
After adding the above code inside in your functions.php file, it will display the below message and link to redirect homepage.
Apart from this WordPress also generates the RSS feeds link inside your page head like the below screenshot. You can go one step further and remove these RSS feed links from your pages HTML code.
Copy the below code into your functions.php file to remove the RSS feed links from your page.

1 2 3 4 5 |
/** * Remove RSS feed links from WordPress header */ remove_action( 'wp_head', 'feed_links_extra', 3 ); remove_action( 'wp_head', 'feed_links', 2 ); |
