Here’s the process to change the labels (I changed posts to “contacts” in my example):
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 | function change_post_menu_label() { global $menu; global $submenu; $menu[5][0] = 'Contacts'; $submenu['edit.php'][5][0] = 'Contacts'; $submenu['edit.php'][10][0] = 'Add Contacts'; $submenu['edit.php'][15][0] = 'Status'; // Change name for categories $submenu['edit.php'][16][0] = 'Labels'; // Change name for tags echo ''; } function change_post_object_label() { global $wp_post_types; $labels = &$wp_post_types['post']->labels; $labels->name = 'Contacts'; $labels->singular_name = 'Contact'; $labels->add_new = 'Add Contact'; $labels->add_new_item = 'Add Contact'; $labels->edit_item = 'Edit Contacts'; $labels->new_item = 'Contact'; $labels->view_item = 'View Contact'; $labels->search_items = 'Search Contacts'; $labels->not_found = 'No Contacts found'; $labels->not_found_in_trash = 'No Contacts found in Trash'; } add_action( 'init', 'change_post_object_label' ); add_action( 'admin_menu', 'change_post_menu_label' ); |
To change the menu order, go with this:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 | // CUSTOMIZE ADMIN MENU ORDER function custom_menu_order($menu_ord) { if (!$menu_ord) return true; return array( 'index.php', // this represents the dashboard link 'edit.php', //the posts tab 'upload.php', // the media manager 'edit.php?post_type=page', //the posts tab ); } add_filter('custom_menu_order', 'custom_menu_order'); add_filter('menu_order', 'custom_menu_order'); |
I’ve got code to remove items, but it’s globally and not based on user access level.
