Admin Ajax dot php? No Thank You!

Description

Changes the wp-admin/admin-ajax.php endpoint to /ajax/
Adds an endpoint to the REST API at /wp-json/wp/v2/admin-ajax that behaves exactly as wp-admin/admin-ajax.php
– requires PHP 5.3

Installation

  1. Place /admin-ajax-dot-php-no-thank-you/ directory in /wp-content/plugins/
  2. Enable the rewrite or REST API endpoints and select a default, at Settings > admin-ajax.php Settings [wp-admin/options-general.php?page=admin-ajax.php-no-thank-you]
  3. Any place that calls admin_url( 'admin-ajax.php' ) from PHP or ajaxurl from JavaScript will automatically use the new default endpoint instead of /wp-admin/admin-ajax.php
  4. /wp-json/wp/v2/admin-ajax in the REST API is also available for receiving requests.

It is a brilliant workaround for websites that prevent you from accessing /wp-admin/ folder from the web.
