It’s a compilation of hooks for enhancing, styling and reducing WordPress backend. Do you like to adjust and style the backend as much as the frontend? So, we are together! #### Main Features * Admin Bar: remove, add and modify menu items. * Admin Menus: remove menu and submenu items; sort Settings menu; rename “Posts”. * Appearance: hide general elements; create admin notices. * Dashboard: remove and add widgets. * General Settings: enable arcane Link Manager; privacy; other misc options. * Listings: customize rows and columns for post types, users and plugins. * Media: custom columns; re-attachment; sanitize filenames; jpeg quality; audio/ photo/video metadata. * Plugins: many row modifications; live filter by keyword/active/inactive; move plugins menus from the main menu into the Tools menu (Code Snippets, The SEO Framework, Hide Admin Notices). * User Profile: remove almost everything; add custom CSS. * Login: redirects; errors; modify almost everything; add custom CSS. * Maintenance Mode: with minimum Role allowed and possibility to block only the backend. ### Acknowledgments * Everything changed after [WordPress Stack Exchange](https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/) * Plugin interface using @bainternet’s [Admin Page Class](https://github.com/bainternet/Admin-Page-Class) * CSS for hiding help texts adapted from [Admin Expert Mode](https://wordpress.org/plugins/admin-expert-mode/) * Everything started with [Adminimize](https://wordpress.org/plugins/adminimize/), by Frank Büeltge, which does an awesome job hiding WordPress elements, but I wanted more, and these are some of the great resources where I found many snippets: [Stack Exchange](https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/1567/best-collection-of-code-for-your-functions-php-file), [WPengineer](https://wpengineer.com), [wpbeginner](https://www.wpbeginner.com), [CSS-TRICKS](https://css-tricks.com), [Smashing Magazine](https://wp.smashingmagazine.com), [Justin Tadlock](https://justintadlock.com)… * The option to hide the help texts from many areas of WordPress uses the CSS file of the plugin [Admin Expert Mode](https://wordpress.org/plugins/admin-expert-mode/), by Scott Reilly. ## Screenshots * [[ * Mind map with all features * [[ * Plugin settings, Profile page adjustments * [[ * Profile page with adjustments * [[ * Website with Maintenance Mode enabled * [[ * Customized Login page * [[ * Post Listing with ID and Thumbnail columns. Draft posts with another background color. Help tab hidden. * [[ * Media Library with ID column, bigger Thumbnails and All Thumbs listing. Download button in action rows. * [[ * Plugins page with different color for Inactive and custom color for selected authors. Simpler description and Last Updated information. ## Installation 1. Upload `many-tips-together.zip` to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory. 2. Activate the plugin through the _Plugins_ menu in WordPress. 3. Go to _Settings -> Admin Tweaks_ and have fun. #### Uninstall The ‘reset’ button doesn’t delete the database entry, but if you delete the plugin, the entry will be deleted (via unsinstall.php) ## FAQ ### Why Many Tips Together? And why change its name to Admin Tweaks? The first version of the plugin was a compilation of snippets. It evolved to a General Admin Tweak plugin. Most of the users who left feedback complained about it: too cryptic and hard to find. Well, I agree, but I’m just changing the Display Name. The Repository URL, Directory Name and Database Option Name are still keep original name. ### Login CSS Look for inspiration at [CodePen.io](https://codepen.io/search/pens?q=wordpress+login+&order=relevance). ### Doubts, bugs, suggestions Don’t hesitate in posting a new topic here in [WordPress support forum](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/many-tips-together). ## Reviews ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/2b6e549213dd7681e2d12dd4cd5e7b7ceb60bd53089f4e86c934d5420623c7e7? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Awesome](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/awesome-9333/)󠁿 [bitpath](https://profiles.wordpress.org/bitpath/) March 22, 2022 Elegant and useful, and amazingly for free.
