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.

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.
