Forums » Plugin: Admin Menu Editor » Cant edit "Profile" tab for users

  • Hi, when Im editing the menu with the admin I can change the “Users” tab with no problem.

    The thing is, normal users dont see the “Users” tab, they see the “Profile” tab. Changes made to the “Users” tab dont have an effect on the “Profile” Tab.

    I cant change that tab because the admin doesnt have it, so, how can I modify the “Profile” Tab for users? specifically, change the icon for a image.

    Thanks!.

    Unfortunately, that’s a known limitation of this plugin. It can only show you menu items that apply to your user account. (This is because WP doesn’t store the admin menu in the database or a file, so when you open the menu editor, all it can do is look at what menu items exist right now.)

    There is currently no good workaround. Sorry.

    Thanks for your response.
    If I put permissions for a normal user to use the plugin, can this be done? Because the user would see the profile tab. Thanks!

    Yes, if you edit the menu from their account, it would work.

    However, giving a non-privileged user access to this plugin would be a big security hole. I would not recommend it.

    Im going to edit it myself with an user account, then Im going to remove the permissions, Im going to do it now. Going to comeback here to tell the results.
