** This plugin is inpired from the work of log-http-requests plugin **

Monitor all the HTTP Request being made via WP HTTP Methods i.e. wp_remote_get, wp_remote_post Block any request by just a click of button.
Track how much time a request like updating core/plugin/theme taking (may be useful for bandwidth consumption analysis),

This plugin logs all WP_HTTP requests and displays them in a table listing for easy viewing. It also stores the runtime of each HTTP request.

If you add a base-url manually, e.g. https://api.woocommerce.com, there will be no more entries stored for that host.

Available Hooks

Add the following to wp-config.php for default blocking:

define( 'inspect_http_requests_default_block', true );

To prevent database littering and performance drain due to sql lookups you can ignore (parts of) hostnames:
(without this, your own site and wordpress.org are ignored)

define( 'inspect_http_requests_ignored_urls', [
        'your own site',
        'wordpress.org',
        'api.woocommerce.com',
        'wp-rocket.me',
        'ip-api.com',
        'ipinfo.io',
    'api',
]);
