Description

Cleans up the WordPress user profile screen by hiding unwanted fields.

This plugin hides:

  • Administration Color Scheme
  • Toolbar
  • Website
  • Facebook profile URL
  • Instagram profile URL
  • LinkedIn profile URL
  • MySpace profile URL
  • Pinterest profile URL
  • SoundCloud profile URL
  • Tumblr profile URL
  • Wikipedia page about you
  • X username without @
  • YouTube profile URL
  • About Yourself section
  • Biographical Info
  • Yoast SEO settings
  • Title to use for Author page
  • Meta description to use for Author page
  • Application Passwords for non-admin users only

Notes

The plugin uses a layered approach:

  1. Removes supported contact methods through WordPress' user_contactmethods filter.
  2. Hides known core/profile rows with admin CSS.
  3. Uses a small admin-only JavaScript fallback to hide rows by visible label text when another plugin changes the row class names.
  4. Disables Application Passwords for non-admin users using WordPress' wp_is_application_passwords_available_for_user filter.

Installation

  1. Upload the ZIP through Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin.
  2. Activate the plugin.
  3. Visit Users > Profile or Users > Edit User to confirm the fields are hidden.
