Suggesting feature

  • Thank you for this nice plugin.
    This is just a suggestion: could you add the feature to open/link to the target menu from the plugin interface? It may make the plugin to become a new dashboard for accessing admin menu.
    Thank you!

    Thank you for the suggestion! However, I can’t quite imagine what that would look like. Could you elaborate on how someone would use this feature if it existed?

    I’ll show a usecase.
    Currently I use the plugin for hiding all the infrequently used menu items to avoid clustering the admin interface.
    But sometimes I need to access a menu item for a one-time task.

    How I do that?
    (1) open the Admin menu,
    (2) unhide the the menu item I need to access,
    (3) save to make the change availble
    (4) access the menu I need
    (5) work for a while
    (6) open the Admin menu again
    (7) hide the menu item again

    It would be great if I just:
    (1) open the Admin menu,
    (2) access the menu item I need right from the Admin menu

    As you can see, it can save a lot of time.
    And I think you can add this feature in almost no time.

    Thank you. I have added your suggestion to my notes.

    For now, one alternative you could try is to copy/move all of the rarely used items to a new top level menu and then move that menu to the bottom of the list. It wouldn’t be very convenient as WordPress doesn’t support multi-level admin menus, but it could be faster than going to the menu editor every time.
