Add Options To Hide WordPress Admin Dropdowns!!!!

<?php
/**

• Reasons for hiding these WordPress admin dropdowns:
• – Simplifies the admin UI for editors or clients.
• – Removes filters that are not needed for the site’s workflow.
• – Reduces clutter and potential confusion for less technical users.
• – Helps enforce a streamlined publishing process.
• – Can save tiny bits of performance if certain dropdowns do heavy queries.

// 1. Remove "Filter by date/month" — not needed if you rarely filter by old content.
add_filter('disable_months_dropdown', '__return_true');

// 2. Remove "Sticky posts" filter — useful if you don't use sticky posts.
add_filter('disable_sticky_dropdown', '__return_true');

// 3. Remove "Post formats" filter — hides a feature many sites never use.
add_filter('disable_formats_dropdown', '__return_true');

// 4. Remove "Bulk actions" dropdown — prevents accidental bulk edits/deletes.
add_filter('disable_actions_dropdown', '__return_true');

// 5. Remove "Filter by author" — useful for single-author sites or fixed contributor teams.
add_filter('disable_authors_dropdown', '__return_true');

// 6. Remove "Filter by category" — hides category filtering if irrelevant.
add_filter('disable_categories_dropdown', '__return_true');

// 7. Remove "Filter by post status" — prevents switching views (Draft, Pending, etc.) if not needed.
add_filter('disable_post_status_dropdown', '__return_true');

// 8. Remove custom taxonomy filter dropdowns — cleans UI if you don't use these taxonomies for filtering.
add_filter('disable_taxonomy_filters_dropdown', '__return_true');
