   Hello, I'm programming a plugin and in the code I'va added a page and some submenus, the problem I have is the page appears as a submenu also, I have:

   add_menu_page( "Myplugin", "Myplugin", "activate_plugins", "Myplugin", "Myplugin_Entry1");
   add_submenu_page( "Myplugin", "Entry1", "Entry1", "activate_plugins", "Myplugin-Entry1", "Myplugin_Entry1" );
   add_submenu_page( "Myplugin", "Entry2", "Entry2", "activate_plugins", "Myplugin-Entry2", "Myplugin_Entry2" );

   And this does:

   Myplugin
   - Myplugin
   - Entry 1
   - Entry 2

   And I wish to have:

   Myplugin
   - Entry 1
   - Entry 2

   What do I need to do?

   I know I shouldn't have "Myplugin_Entry1" as last parameter in add_menu_page( "Myplugin", "Myplugin", "activate_plugins", "Myplugin", "Myplugin_Entry1"); but otherwise I get an error when clicking menu page.

   Thank you

   Here's a nice hack: In add_menu_page, pass a non-existent capability (and you can leave off the function):

   add_menu_page( "Myplugin", "Myplugin", "nosuchcapability", "Myplugin");

   The automatically-generated submenu is blocked by the capability check.

   Try this

   add_menu_page( $page_title, $menu_title, $capability, $menu_slug, null, $icon_url );
   add_submenu_page( $same_as_add_menu_page_slug, $page_title, $menu_title, $capability, $same_as_add_menu_page_slug, $function );

   add_menu_page has null value as the function.

   Also, only the first add_sub_menu menu-slug needs to be the same as the add_menu_page.
