Admin Menu Editor lets you manually edit the Dashboard menu. You can reorder the menus, show/hide specific items, change access rights, and more.

Features

• Edit any existing menu - change the title, access rights, menu icon and so on.
• Sort menu items via drag & drop.
• Move a menu item to a different submenu via cut & paste.
• Hide/show any menu or menu item. A hidden menu is invisible to all users, including administrators.
• Create custom menus that point to any part of the Dashboard or an external URL.

The Pro version of the plugin lets you also import/export menu configurations, make menu items open in a new window, and use shortcodes in the Dashboard menu.

Notes

• If you delete any of the default menus they will reappear after saving. This is by design. To get rid of a menu for good, either hide it or set it's access rights to a higher level.
• If one of your menu items is only visible in the editor but not the Dashboard menu itself, make sure its "Custom" checkbox is ticked. The plugin will usually do this for you when you create a new menu.
• You can't lower a menu's required access rights, but you can change them to be more restrictive.
• In case of emergency, you can reset the menu configuration back to the default by going to http://example.com/wp-admin/?reset_admin_menu=1
