✅ This plugin minimises the WordPress admin menu to five (5) top-level items.

✅ It remixes submenus and adds some former top-level items to them.

✅ Finally, it bundles all third-party settings pages on a dedicated submenu page. No more plugins in the top level.

🚫 This is **not** an admin menu editor of any sorts.

🚫 There are **no options** for you to customise what goes where.
**In short: a prototype.**

## 💡 Installation

🚫 **DO NOT INSTALL THIS without running it on a testing site first!**

Clone this repository to your local machine, or [download the latest release](https://github.com/casparhubinger/simplified-admin-menu/releases/latest).

You can install the .zip file like any other plugin via _wp-admin › Plugins › Add New_.
- Clone this repository to your local machine, or [download the latest release](https://github.com/casparhubinger/simplified-admin-menu/releases/latest).
- You can install the .zip file like any other plugin via _wp-admin › Plugins › Add New_.

If you don’t know what a .zip file is, or how to upload one to WordPress, make sure you have a WordPress-savvy person nearby before you proceed, or you might end up breaking your website.

### Will this be available via WordPress.org?

No plans in that direction, but you can use the [GitHub Updater plugin](https://github.com/afragen/github-updater/).

### Will it work with…?

It will work with a lot of (if not most) plugins and themes, but the question is: will it be pratical?

- If you run a simple blog or small business site without a lot of extra functionality, this plugin will probably blend in seamlessly with your setup.
- If you run a WooCommerce shop, or a site with a bunch of custom post types, your site will still work with this plugin, but you’ll find your custom post types (or WooCommerce orders) in the _Setup_ menu under _Plugin Settings_. You’ll probably don’t want that.

## 🌈 Translations

This plugin relies on core strings where possible, but it also does introduce a few strings of its own. These are translation-ready, a text domain gets loaded, and a .pot file is provided.
