Instructions: Copy the code below and save as users-logout.php Create a folder called users-logout, upload the file and the images below to … Read more
Try theme_location instead of menu in arguments. Too late here to look up specifics, but I remember documentation/code being absolutely confusing about that.
The callback you have given in add_menu_page() is a static function, not a class method. It should be: add_menu_page( ‘School Manager Settings’, ‘School Manager’, ‘administrator’, ‘school-manager-settings’, array ( $this, ‘show_admin_settings_page’ ) ); And please don’t use &$this anymore, that’s PHP 4. 🙂 My demo plugin T5 Admin Menu Demo might help understanding how that works.
You are indeed correct, before the admin update(i imagine the UI redesign, etc), unsetting items from the menus would in effect prevent access to those pages, that’s clearly changed now and requires additional cap checking. This isn’t something i’ve looked into myself(as i’ve just found out this moment), so i can’t speak about methods for … Read more
The correct way would be to use the disallow file editing constant in your config file. define( ‘DISALLOW_FILE_EDIT’, true ); http://codex.wordpress.org/Editing_wp-config.php#Disable_the_Plugin_and_Theme_Editor
Codex – Register Post Type See the capability_type and capabilities arguments for register_post_type. You can pass the capabilities argument an array of capabilities to map to the necessary caps, here’s an example of the args array with custom capabilities. $args = array( ‘labels’ => $labels, ‘public’ => true, ‘publicly_queryable’ => true, ‘show_ui’ => true, ‘query_var’ … Read more
If you just want to hide the menu items, you can do it like shown below. Don’t forget about the entries inside the admin bar. Code: //hide in admin menu add_action( ‘admin_menu’, ‘wpse121406_hide_pages_comments_m’ ); function wpse121406_hide_pages_comments_m() { remove_menu_page(‘edit.php?post_type=page’); remove_menu_page( ‘edit-comments.php’ ); } //hide in admin bar add_action( ‘wp_before_admin_bar_render’, ‘wpse121406_hide_pages_comments_b’ ); function wpse121406_hide_pages_comments_b() { global $wp_admin_bar; … Read more
Try this: add_menu_page(__(‘My Plugin’, ‘myplugin’),__(‘My Plugin’, ‘myplugin’), ‘edit_posts’,’my-plugin-dashboard’,’my_plugin_dashboard’,’icon’); // dashboard submenu – this fails to highlight with current add_submenu_page(‘my-plugin-dashboard’, __(‘Dashboard’,’myplugin’), __(‘Dashboard’,’myplugin’), ‘edit_posts’, ‘my-plugin-dashboard’, ‘my_plugin_dashboard’ ); // settings submenu – this fails to highlight with current add_submenu_page(‘my-plugin-dashboard’, __(‘Settings’,’myplugin’), __(‘Settings’,’myplugin’), ‘manage_options’, ‘my-plugin-settings’, ‘my_plugin_settings’ ); Essentially: don’t use full page links with admin.php?… as the page slug. Especially … Read more
Attention to the use of get_page_by_title parameters. And also to the use of the Heredoc PHP syntax. $the_post_title=”The Portfolio”; add_action( ‘admin_menu’, ‘wpse_59050_add_menu’ ); add_action( ‘admin_head-post.php’, ‘wpse_59050_highlight_menu_item’ ); function wpse_59050_add_menu() { global $the_post_title; $our_page = get_page_by_title( $the_post_title ); $settings_page = add_menu_page( ‘Edit ‘.$our_page->post_title, ‘Edit ‘.$our_page->post_title, ‘add_users’, ‘/post.php?post=”.$our_page->ID.”&action=edit’, ”, ”, 2); } function wpse_59050_highlight_menu_item() { global $the_post_title, … Read more
The previous answers propose editing core WordPress files, which is never a good idea, as new versions of WordPress will overwrite the changes (among other things). While the original Trac ticket #18282 has been open since July 2011, the issue still exists in WordPress 4.6 — going on 5+ years now. Fortunately there is a … Read more
