Features Change menu titles, URLs, icons, CSS classes and so on. Organize menu items via drag & drop. Change menu permissions by setting the required capability or role. Move a menu item to a different submenu. Create custom menus that point to any part of the Dashboard or an external URL. Hide/show any menu or menu item.

Try online demo. Additional Features Despite the name, this plugin is not limited to just editing the admin menu. You can also: Create login redirects and logout redirects. Allow/deny access to specific posts based on user roles. Hide plugins on the Plugins -> Installed Plugins page from other users. Edit the display name, description, and other plugin details shown on the Plugins -> Installed Plugins page (e.g. for white-labelling). Shortcodes The plugin provides a few utility shortcodes. These are mainly intended to help with creating login/logout redirects, but you can also use them in posts and pages. [ame-wp-admin] – URL of the WordPress dashboard (with a trailing slash). [ame-home-url] – Site URL. Usually, this is the same as the URL in the “Site Address” field in Settings -> General. [ame-user-info field="..."] – Information about the logged-in user. Parameters: field – The part of user profile to display. Supported fields include: ID, user_login, display_name, locale, user_nicename, user_url, and so on. placeholder – Optional. Text that will be shown if the visitor is not logged in. encoding – Optional. How to encode or escape the output. This is useful if you want to use the shortcode in your own HTML or JS code. Supported values: auto (default), html, attr, js, none. Notes If you delete any of the default menus they will reappear after saving. This is by design. To get rid of a menu for good, either hide it or change it’s access permissions. In the free version, it’s not possible to give a role access to a menu item that it couldn’t see before. You can only restrict menu access further. In case of emergency, you can reset the menu configuration back to the default by going to http://example.com/wp-admin/?reset_admin_menu=1 (replace example.com with your site URL). You must be logged in as an Administrator to do this.
R3DF Dashboard Language Switcher
This plugin allows logged in users to select the language they would like to use when viewing the WordPress dashboard. It works with multisite and single site installs of WordPress. The plugin offers several options for language settings: WordPress admin toolbar switcher – user can easily switch language on admin pages. logon screen switcher – user can specify his/her preferred language during logon. user profile setting – user can choose a language in their user profile. Notes: This plugin does NOT add languages to WordPress, you need to add them to use the switcher. (see below) This plugin does NOT translate other plugins or themes, it manages the language setting for the WordPress site. (see below) The admin toolbar switcher takes priority over the other options. If a language selection is made via the toolbar, it changes the user profile setting to the current language selection. If enabled, the login switcher changes the user profile setting to requested language selection at login. Installing WordPress languages: To add languages to WordPress ( since 4.1 ), simply select a new language from the ones available on the “Site Language” setting on the “General Settings” page. When you save your settings, the new language will be added to the site. (and selected as the current language) Plugin and theme translations: It is up to plugin and theme authors to provide translations for their works. If you change the site language, and a plugin or theme is not translated (usually still showing English), you need to contact the authors of those works to get the needed translation files. There is a French translation of this plugin included. It was mostly a test of the translation of the plugin. It’s not a great translation, if you can improve it please let me know.
