Description
Extends the admin role with a new, awesomer role called ‘Sysadmin’. This new role gives you a menu of options to hide menu and/or sub-menu items in the admin from all other users (e.g. Themes, Theme Editor, Plugin Editor, etc.) Very useful when restricting major changes or updates from clients or administrators.
Uninstall
Just deactivate and delete plugin. This will re-assign Sysadmin role as Administrator and remove all options (unhiding hidden menu items, etc.)
Installation
Activate, promote yourself, set your options, high five.
- Upload
system-adminto the/wp-content/plugins/directory - Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
- Promote yourself to Sysadmin and visit System Admin on the menu, select your desired options, save changes.
