## Description

**Hide Current Page From Menu – Advanced** is a lightweight WordPress plugin that
automatically hides the menu item corresponding to the current page, post, or custom
post type.
 It works dynamically — no need to edit your menus manually — and supports
nested menu structures, specific menu locations, and role-based visibility.

**Perfect for:**
 – Hiding the “current” page to simplify navigation – Restricting
certain menus for logged-in or logged-out users – Keeping dynamic menus clean without
coding

### Features

 * Automatically hides the current page’s menu item.
 * Supports nested (hierarchical) menus and ancestor cleanup.
 * Works with pages, posts, and custom post types.
 * Role-based visibility controls.
 * Menu location targeting.
 * Lightweight and optimized for performance — no front-end JavaScript required.

## Screenshots

## Installation

 1. Upload the plugin folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`.
 2. Activate the plugin from the **Plugins** menu in WordPress.
 3. Go to **Settings  Menu Visibility** to configure exclusions by role, menu, or post
    type.

## FAQ

### How do I configure the plugin?

Go to **Settings  Menu Visibility** and choose which menu items, user roles, or 
locations to exclude.

### Does this plugin support custom post types?

Yes, it supports pages, posts, and any registered custom post type that appears 
in menus.

### Will it affect my theme or menu design?

No. The plugin works only on the PHP menu output layer using standard WordPress 
filters — it’s fully theme-safe and doesn’t modify your actual menu data.
