Admin Menu Editor Pro for WordPress Dashboard Menus

Admin Menu Editor Pro is the paid edition of Admin Menu Editor. Use it to organize the WordPress Dashboard and configure related access options for sites with different users and roles.

Prepare the Dashboard menu

Drag menu entries to reorder them, move them between menu levels, or place them in another submenu. Change titles, URLs, icons, and CSS classes; display or hide menus and individual items; and make custom menus that link to Dashboard areas or external URLs. Pro also lets you open menus in a new window and export a menu configuration.

Set menu access

Menu permissions can use a required capability or role. Pro adds per-role permissions and lets you hide a menu from everyone except a specific visitor. A menu hidden outright is invisible to all users, including administrators. If selected users should retain access, use permissions or the Pro option for a specific user. Deleted default menus reappear after saving, so hide them or change their access permissions to remove them from view.

Configure related processes

Create login and logout redirects, allow or deny access to specific posts based on user roles, and hide extensions from other users on the Installed Plugins page. You can also edit a plugin's show name, description, author name, site URL, version number, and other details shown there. These edits affect how add-on information appears; they do not change plugin files.

Use utility shortcodes

The shortcodes can help create redirects and can also be used in posts or pages:

• [ame-wp-admin] outputs the WordPress Dashboard URL with a trailing slash.
• [ame-home-url] outputs the website URL.
• [ame-user-info field="..."] shows supported information about a logged-in user, such as their ID, login name, display name, locale, or user URL.

The user information shortcode accepts an optional placeholder for visitors who are not logged in. Its encoding option supports auto, HTML, attributes, JavaScript, or no encoding, which is useful when inserting the output into custom HTML or JavaScript.

Configure and review

Install and activate the plugin in WordPress, then open Settings > Menu Editor to arrange menus, set permissions, and configure redirects or other controls. Review the resulting access for each role before assigning the configuration.
