Thanks to Jeremy Herve for point out this thread. Here’s a way to block all users except administrators from seeing Jetpack in their Dashboard:

<?php

function hide_jetpack_from_others() {

    if ( ! current_user_can('administrator') ) {
        remove_menu_page( 'jetpack' );
    }
}

add_action('jetpack_admin_menu', 'hide_jetpack_from_others');

The easiest way to enable this is to save that function to a file, such as

jetpack-tweaks.php (or whatever you want to call it)

and upload it to

wp-content/mu-plugins (create directory if needed)

mu-plugins, for those that don’t know, is a directory that WP scans and will run every .php file inside of. Basically, they’re plugins that don’t appear in your plugins admin interface.

Thanks, Esmi. I’d researched custom page templates a little beforehand, it seemed I’d need to create a separate template for each “book” (Page), create a new Page, then assign the correct template to that Page. Seems like a lot more work than manually copying the html from Dreamweaver and pasting it into a Page, loss of code formatting be damned. Custom fields and shortcodes seemed even harder, for my needs, though it’s something I’d like to learn for future reference.

In the end, I found a great little plugin, WP Include File which worked perfectly. It was as simple as

[include file="my-file.html"]

The outputted page looks identical to if I’d put the markup in the Editor – no loss of formatting. And it appears to work great on 3.4.2 even though it’s only listed up to 3.1.4.

Thanks again for your input.:)

Thanks again, Ipstenu. Your help and insights are much appreciated.
