Almost the same approach One Trick Pony has chosen, but I am using translated names and uasort() (to preserve the keys): add_filter( ‘editable_roles’, ‘t5_sort_editable_roles’ ); /** * Array of roles. * * @wp-hook editable_roles * @param array $roles * @return array */ function t5_sort_editable_roles( $roles ) { uasort( $roles, ‘t5_uasort_editable_roles’ ); return $roles; } /** … Read more

As far as ease of use, especially for WordPress Admins not too firm in PHP, I second brasoflo’s plugin recommendation (Adminimize). For the sake of completeness, this is how it’d be done programmatically: /* Remove the “Dashboard” from the admin menu for non-admin users */ function wpse52752_remove_dashboard () { global $current_user, $menu, $submenu; get_currentuserinfo(); if( … Read more
The best way is to re-direct user logins to your page and also remove the dashboard from the menu, this can be done with 2 filters.

Here is the function that I use to display CPT in the “At a glance” widget add_action( ‘dashboard_glance_items’, ‘cpad_at_glance_content_table_end’ ); function cpad_at_glance_content_table_end() { $args = array( ‘public’ => true, ‘_builtin’ => false ); $output=”object”; $operator=”and”; $post_types = get_post_types( $args, $output, $operator ); foreach ( $post_types as $post_type ) { $num_posts = wp_count_posts( $post_type->name ); $num … Read more
In you PhpMyAdmin query for: (if you have a different database prefix, change that in the query, also change the user_id to yours) SELECT * FROM `wp_usermeta` WHERE `user_id` =1 AND `meta_key` LIKE ‘meta-box%’ Than delete those values and you will get the original order back. If you only want to change the menu order … Read more
The CPT and taxonomy terms are created via plugin. I was able to lessen the query by adding the following to my plugin: add_action( ‘pre_get_posts’, ‘nwtd_lpfs_custom_admin_query’ ); function nwtd_lpfs_custom_admin_query( $query ) { if( !is_admin() && !$query->is_main_query() ) { return; } if( is_post_type_archive( ‘services’ ) ) { $query->set(‘no_found_rows’, 1 ); $query->set(‘update_post_meta_cache’, 0 ); $query->set(‘update_post_term_cache’, 0 ); … Read more
