## Description
IGW Admin Cleanup is a simple WordPress plugin that helps you keep the administration
area clean by hiding unnecessary elements added by other plugins.
Many WordPress plugins permanently display upgrade links, premium version promotions,
banners, commercial notices, calls to action and other elements that you may not
need during everyday use.
IGW Admin Cleanup allows you to hide these elements without modifying the original
files of WordPress or third-party plugins.
Simply add the CSS selectors of the elements you want to hide, one selector per
line.
For example:
```
#wfMenuCallout
.plugin-upgrade-notice
.premium-banner
```
IGW Admin Cleanup will locate these elements when the WordPress administration area
loads and hide them automatically.
If the selected element is contained inside an `` element, IGW Admin Cleanup
hides the complete list item. This is particularly useful for removing promotional
links from plugin menus.
#### What can IGW Admin Cleanup hide?
You can use IGW Admin Cleanup to hide elements such as:
* Premium or Pro upgrade links.
* Promotional banners.
* Commercial notices.
* Calls to action.
* Plugin menu entries.
* Other unnecessary elements in the WordPress administration area.
#### Simple configuration
Go to:
Settings IGW Admin Cleanup
Add one CSS selector per line and save your changes.
There is no need to modify theme files, plugin files or add custom code to `functions.
php`.
#### Important
IGW Admin Cleanup only visually hides the selected elements.
It does not disable plugin functionality, licenses, checks, restrictions or premium
features.
CSS selectors used by third-party plugins may change after an update. If this happens,
you may need to update the corresponding selector in IGW Admin Cleanup.
#### Current limitations
The current version works with elements available during the normal loading of the
WordPress administration page.
Elements dynamically generated by JavaScript after the page has loaded may not currently
be detected.
Support for dynamically loaded elements may be added in a future version.
