No built-in updater. New versions won't appear under Dashboard → Updates. Install new releases yourself, or let Git Updater track the repository.

Status: alpha. This is an early release undergoing testing.

Organize the WordPress admin sidebar into configurable, collapsible sections while preserving native menu items and user permissions. Configure once for an installation using a small MU-plugin. Works on multisite.

WordPress admin sidebar with collapsible sections

Features

  • Group menu items into named sections with Dashicons.
  • Omit empty sections and keep unassigned items visible under See More.
  • Keep selected destinations standalone above the sections.
  • Start sections collapsed in a new tab; automatically expand the section containing the current page.
  • Remember section toggles per site and user within the current browser tab.
  • Preserve the full native icon rail when the sidebar is collapsed.
  • Keep WordPress's native collapse control at the bottom of the menu; pin the expand control to the viewport bottom in collapsed desktop mode.
  • Move WordPress's existing command-palette trigger into a Go to… item when available.
  • Optionally keep the WordPress Dashboard and CiviCRM submenus as flyouts.
