    Admin Menu Editor lets you manually edit the Dashboard menu. You can reorder the menus, show/hide specific items, change permissions, and more.

    Features

    • Change menu titles, URLs, icons, CSS classes and so on.
    • Organize menu items via drag & drop.
    • Change menu permissions by setting the required capability or role.
    • Move a menu item to a different submenu.
    • Create custom menus that point to any part of the Dashboard or an external URL.
    • Hide/show any menu or menu item. A hidden menu is invisible to all users, including administrators.

    The Pro version lets you set per-role menu permissions, hide a menu from everyone except a specific user, export your admin menu, drag items between menu levels, make menus open in a new window and more. Try online demo.

    Additional Features

    Despite the name, this plugin is not limited to just editing the admin menu. You can also:

    • Create login redirects and logout redirects.
    • Allow/deny access to specific posts based on user roles.
    • Hide plugins on the Plugins -> Installed Plugins page from other users.
    • Edit the display name, description, and other plugin details shown on the Plugins -> Installed Plugins page (e.g. for white-labelling).

    Shortcodes

    The plugin provides a few utility shortcodes. These are mainly intended to help with creating login/logout redirects, but you can also use them in posts and pages.

    • [ame-wp-admin] – URL of the WordPress dashboard (with a trailing slash).
    • [ame-home-url] – Site URL. Usually, this is the same as the URL in the “Site Address” field in Settings -> General.
    • [ame-user-info field="..."] – Information about the logged-in user. Parameters:
      • field – The part of user profile to display. Supported fields include: ID, user_login, display_name, locale, user_nicename, user_url, and so on.
      • placeholder – Optional. Text that will be shown if the visitor is not logged in.
      • encoding – Optional. How to encode or escape the output. This is useful if you want to use the shortcode in your own HTML or JS code. Supported values: auto (default), html, attr, js, none.

    Notes

    • If you delete any of the default menus they will reappear after saving. This is by design. To get rid of a menu for good, either hide it or change it’s access permissions.
    • In the free version, it’s not possible to give a role access to a menu item that it couldn’t see before. You can only restrict menu access further.
    • In case of emergency, you can reset the menu configuration back to the default by going to http://example.com/wp-admin/?reset_admin_menu=1 (replace example.com with your site URL). You must be logged in as an Administrator to do this.
