Possibly print a table based on the active plugins to tell the admin to whitelist specific services.

Same issue with Jetpack and all remote administration plugins?

How about WP REST API? Is that blocked too?

Implementing this may become maintenance 'nightmare'. You already have external site with documentation. Documentation is easy to extend for each plugin that requires 'whitelist'.

Why not only provide link to 'whitelist' documentation on plugin settings page and close this issue? :sunglasses:

@ddur - I agree, it can be painful to maintain such a list all the time. I created an article within the codex:

Thank you for the suggestion.
