# Please disable Website Scan column

 * Please add an option to disable the “Complianz Website Scan” admin column globally.
   On sites with many custom columns it significantly reduces usability of the Posts/
   Pages overview and there is currently no central setting to disable it for all
   users.
   Thanks in advance

 * Hi everyone.
 * Thanks for raising this, and apologies for any frustration the column has caused.
 * As some of you have already mentioned, you can hide the **Complianz Website Scan**
   column natively in WordPress, without any code. Here’s how:
    1. Open the **Posts** (or **Pages**) list in wp-admin.
    2. Click **Screen Options** in the top right corner.
    3. Under **Columns**, untick **Complianz Website Scan**.
 * The column will disappear from the list and the setting is remembered per user.
 * If instead your issue is with the column stretching or its width on the list 
   table, you can use this small mu-plugin we put together, which resizes it cleanly:
   [https://gist.github.com/tonai126/2215fbcb3067a5ec78aacd9530bf4c3d](https://gist.github.com/tonai126/2215fbcb3067a5ec78aacd9530bf4c3d)
 * Just drop the file into `wp-content/mu-plugins/` (create the folder if it doesn’t
   exist) and it loads automatically.
   Last but not least, we have noted your feedback
   about adding a global option.
 * Best regards,
   Antonio

 * Hi Antonio,
   Thank you very much for taking the time to look into this.Your suggestion
   is perfectly clear, and any experienced WordPress administrator will know how
   to hide the column using Screen Options.The problem is that we manage websites
   with dozens of editors and other users. Asking every single user to customize
   their admin interface to hide a column that many of them will never use creates
   unnecessary work for administrators and unnecessary complexity for users.From
   my point of view, features like this should either be disabled by default or 
   have a global setting that allows site administrators to enable or disable them
   for all users. Otherwise, WordPress admin screens gradually become more cluttered
   as each plugin adds its own columns.I’m glad to hear you’ve noted the feedback,
   and I hope you’ll consider adding a global option in a future release.Thanks 
   again for your response.
