    Hi,

    This message is shown by wp-admin/includes/menu.php:

    if ( ! user_can_access_admin_page() ) {

	/**
	 * Fires when access to an admin page is denied.
	 *
	 * @since 2.5.0
	 */
	do_action( 'admin_page_access_denied' );

	wp_die( __( 'Sorry, you are not allowed to access this page.' ), 403 );
}

    So you can use ‘admin_page_access_denied’ to show a custom message and stop PHP execution via wp_die() or redirect.

    Brilliant! What if I don’t want to show the message instead of just redirecting them to the 404? Sorry, I’m not familiar with PHP.

    Should it be something like this?

    if ( ! user_can_access_admin_page() ) {

	/**
	 * Fires when access to an admin page is denied.
	 *
	 * @since 2.5.0
	 */
	do_action( 'admin_page_access_denied' );

	wp_die( __ 404 );
}
