Admin Menu listing not properly updated

  • Dear argonius,

    I just experienced something strange with your plugin. In Admin Menu, I noticed that whenever I’ve added a new plugin, the listed plugin is shown with the wrong name. In the end, I’ve to “Change Text” for every menu and submenu after the new plugin’s menu/submenu have been added, so that I won’t get terribly confused.

    This behaviour of your plugin is bizarre, but luckily nothing too serious. Hope that you can look into this, and come out with a fix in your next release.

    Cheers,
    Jason

    Will it be this?

    Something is wrong with Admin Menu buttons

    Please use ‘Reset Settings’ button on Admin Menu page to reset menu configuration to defaults. Remember that you should postpone admin menu configuration to the very end of admin page customization, because, any changes made from other plugins to admin menu (e.g adding new button of plugin that is activated, or removing that button when plugin is deactivated) could corrupt admin menu configuration.

    Dear argonius,

    The ‘Reset Settings’ button worked! Unfortunately, when I select to hide the Dashboard >> Updates, this submenu still shows. Am I missing something?

    Please advise. Thank you.

    Hmm.. not really sure about that. That’s the way to hide it. Please try again, and if still does not work we can add some custom code to hide it if you want.

    Looks I’ve ran out of options, and had to insert the following code into the theme’s functions.php

    // Remove sub menu page links
add_action('admin_menu', 'remove_menus');
function remove_menus()
{
global $submenu;
remove_submenu_page ( 'index.php', 'update-core.php' );    // Dashboard->Updates
}

    Anyway, how do I hide the menu of “AG Custom Admin”, while showing the submenu of this plugin within Tools?

    Yeah, that could be a solution. If you want to hide AGCA menu item, the best way to do that is to go to AGCA -> Advanced tab and choose capability that only AGCA administrators would have. Any other user that don’t have that capability will not be able to see AGCA menu item.
