TL;DR

AI summary of the plugin's readme

This plugin is for WordPress site owners and developers who need to control menu visibility based on user login status or role. It solves the problem of having to modify theme functions.php files (which get overwritten by theme updates) in order to add menu restrictions.

Show/hide menu items by login status
Show/hide menu items by user role
Fine-grained per-menu-item permissions
Avoids editing theme functions.php
Independent of theme updates

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about Privilege Menu

Yes you can. Included now in this plugin is a folder call "lang". Within this folder is a file called "privilege-menu.pot". This file can be used to create the localized translations for your own language using poedit. If you contact me after you have done this through my website at: https://www.fuzzguard.com.au/contact/ I can include this translation file in the next plugin release. You will be credited for your work of course.

This usually occurs due to a plugin conflict. The Admin Menu Walker can only have one custom walker so any other plugin that uses a custom Admin Menu Walker will cause conflicts with Privilege Menu plugin. WordPress does not yet have sufficient hooks in this area of the admin panel. Due to this plugins are forced to load a modified custom Admin Menu Walker. The custom Admin Menu Walker is limited to one so only one Admin Panel menu modification plugin can be active at one time. Although this feature has been requested since 3.6 it still hasn't been added to the WordPress Core. There's a possibility that support for "Nav Menu UI" Hooks will be added in WordPress 4.8 as it has now been picked up by the developers and they are actively working on implementing this: http://core.trac.wordpress.org/ticket/18584

There are two hooks that have been provided for this plugin. The first hook is: 'priv_menu_roles'. It can be used to allow other plugins to add roles to be checked by 'Privilege Menu': add_filter( 'priv_menu_roles', 'roles_to_add', 10, 1 ); function roles_to_add($roles /* WP_RoleNames Array */) { $roles['new_role'] = 'New Role'; return $roles; } The second hook is: 'priv_menu_visibility'. It can be used for other plugins to filter the result for the front-end display of the menu items generated by 'Privilege Menu': add_filter( 'priv_menu_visibility', 'filter_FE_display', 10, 2); function filter_FE_display($visibility /* Boolean */, $item /* WP_POST Object*/) { if ($item->ID == '470' || $item->title == 'Logout') { $visibility = true; } return $visibility; }
