Any way to get rid of QuickPress in Admin page? (2 posts)

    I'd like to get rid of QuickPress because I installed a plugin which restricts certain users to only post in a particular category, but QuickPress bypasses the plugin.

    Open wp-admin/includes/dashboard.php in a text editor. Find the following code starting around line 51.

    // QuickPress Widget
	if ( current_user_can('edit_posts') )
		wp_add_dashboard_widget( 'dashboard_quick_press', __( 'QuickPress' ), 'wp_dashboard_quick_press' );

    Comment out the code after the if by adding // so it looks like this:

    // QuickPress Widget
	if ( current_user_can('edit_posts') )
	//	wp_add_dashboard_widget( 'dashboard_quick_press', __( 'QuickPress' ), 'wp_dashboard_quick_press' );
