Nav Menu Roles
This plugin lets you hide custom menu items based on user roles. So if you have a link in the menu that you only want to show to logged in users, certain types of users, or even only to logged out users, this plugin is for you. Nav Menu Roles is very flexible. In addition to standard user roles, you can customize the functionality by adding your own check boxes with custom labels using the nav_menu_roles filter and then using the nav_menu_roles_item_visibility filter to check against whatever criteria you need. You can check against any user meta values (like capabilities) and any custom attributes added by other plugins. IMPORTANT NOTE In WordPress menu items and pages are completely separate entities. Nav Menu Roles does not restrict access to content. Nav Menu Roles is only for showing/hiding nav menu items. If you wish to restrict content then you need to also be using a membership plugin. Usage Go to Appearance > Menus Set the “Target audience” to either “Everyone”, “Logged In Users”, or “Logged Out Users”. “Everyone” is the default. If you wish to customize by role, set the “Target audience” to “Logged In Users” and under “Target role” check the boxes next to the desired roles. The item will be visible to users who have any of the checked roles. Roles are not hierarchical, so an item set to “Subscriber” is not visible to Administrators unless you also check “Administrator”. If no roles are checked, the item is visible to all logged in users. Set the “Display Mode” to “Show” to display the item only to the selected audience, or to “Hide” to hide the item from the selected audience and show it to everyone else. “Show” is the default.
