I used your Menus and Meta boxed plugin to great effect. It worked better than a number of others I tried. ( I also like it because it’s tidy and doesn’t clutter the settings menu )
New Blog defaults I had installed already, and the Default Role was perfect. Essentially, I hit most of the nails on the head first time round, so I really appreciate your help!
One suggestion though, is your Menus and Meta boxes don’t take in to account custom post types. I have a number of tumblr style of custom types, and I wish to hide the taxonomies from the user.
On the whole though, I’m very grateful! thank you ??
