Simpli Admin Menu Sorter & Hider helps you organize the menu in the WordPress administration area. From one settings screen, you can change the order of top-level sidebar items, rearrange their submenus, and hide entries you do not need to see.
WordPress sites often gain extra admin menus as themes and plugins are installed. This plugin lets you keep the sidebar focused on the screens you use most, without editing theme files or creating custom code.
What You Can Do
- Reorder top-level menus: Drag menu items into the sequence that works best for your daily tasks.
- Reorder submenus: Arrange the child pages within a parent menu using drag and drop.
- Hide sidebar entries: Choose which top-level menus or individual submenu items should not appear in the admin sidebar.
- Save changes in the dashboard: Apply your choices using the Save Changes button on the settings page.
- Restore the defaults: Remove your custom ordering and visibility rules with Reset to Default.
- Keep settings between visits: The plugin stores its menu preferences in a WordPress option so your chosen layout is applied on later admin visits.
How to Use It
- 01Activate the plugin and open Settings > Admin Menu Sorter .
- 02Drag top-level menu rows to rearrange them. If a menu has submenus, drag those items within their parent section as well.
- 03Use the visibility toggles to hide individual menus or submenus from the sidebar.
- 04Click Save Changes and let the admin page refresh to apply your choices.
- 05To remove saved customizations, choose Reset to Default .
The settings screen displays menus available in the current WordPress admin environment, including menus added by installed plugins when they are registered there.
Site-Wide Menu Preferences
The saved order and visibility preferences are site-wide, not separate presets for individual users or roles. WordPress still decides which admin pages each user is permitted to access.
