 * Hi,
 * I want to hide menu item to anonymous users. For this, I watch for private post
   status in menu items but strangely, it’s always [post_status] => publish.
 * So, I think menu items are considered as posts and what I see is status of menu
   items, not pages status.
 * But there’s no way to change menu items visibility.
 * How can I do ?

 * Ok, just have to get_post_status($item->object_id).
