Title: Custom Submenu Items Last modified: April 18, 2018 --- # Custom Submenu Items * Resolved [Iconic](https://wordpress.org/support/users/iconicwp/) * (@iconicwp) * [8 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-submenu-items/) * It would be good if you allowed the addition of custom submenu items. Or am I missing something?

If is not automatically in the list, after update of the Adminimize settings, you should add this via custom options. See the wiki – [https://github.com/bueltge/adminimize/wiki](https://github.com/bueltge/adminimize/wiki) * Thread Starter [Iconic](https://wordpress.org/support/users/iconicwp/) * (@iconicwp) * [8 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-submenu-items/#post-10197535) * Hey, * 1. The plugin does see the submenu, however it gives it a custom ID of `woocommerce__100008`. When Adminimize actually checks which menus to hide it uses a different ID `woocommerce__08`, so the menu item isn’t hidden. * 2. I’ve added the custom menu no problem. However, it adds it as a top-level menu, so it isn’t found/hidden when the plugin compares it to available sub pages. * Plugin Contributor [Frank Bueltge](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bueltge/) * (@bueltge) * [8 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-submenu-items/#post-10198574) * The ID is not helpful, only the slug is necessary to hiding a menu item, it works for Sub- and Parent item in the same context. If you will get the slug active the debug function of Adminimize, login as User with the role, there you will hide and read inside the console (F12 in Browser) for the slugs. * Thread Starter [Iconic](https://wordpress.org/support/users/iconicwp/) * (@iconicwp) * [8 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-submenu-items/#post-10198601) * It’s not working as expected: * Debug info regarding submenus: [https://www.dropbox.com/s/9pcplgbwiqw0i6e/Screenshot%202018-04-19%2014.40.41.png?dl=0](https://www.dropbox.com/s/9pcplgbwiqw0i6e/Screenshot%202018-04-19%2014.40.41.png?dl=0) * My custom settings: [https://www.dropbox.com/s/6jjzs8waqrcn5a5/Screenshot%202018-04-19%2014.41.27.png?dl=0](https://www.dropbox.com/s/6jjzs8waqrcn5a5/Screenshot%202018-04-19%2014.41.27.png?dl=0) * The menu item still there: [https://www.dropbox.com/s/i0p3wqji7ke6d23/Screenshot%202018-04-19%2014.41.44.png?dl=0](https://www.dropbox.com/s/i0p3wqji7ke6d23/Screenshot%202018-04-19%2014.41.44.png?dl=0) * Thread Starter [Iconic](https://wordpress.org/support/users/iconicwp/) * (@iconicwp) * [8 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-submenu-items/#post-10198627) * The ID I mentioned is what it’s meant to use by default, but that does not work either: * Settings: [https://www.dropbox.com/s/n07xmgz32g0c9wg/Screenshot%202018-04-19%2014.43.17.png?dl=0](https://www.dropbox.com/s/n07xmgz32g0c9wg/Screenshot%202018-04-19%2014.43.17.png?dl=0) * When it comes to checking which submenus to disable, you can see the settings here: [https://www.dropbox.com/s/g3a8rvrmlw52zl8/Screenshot%202018-04-19%2014.46.19.png?dl=0](https://www.dropbox.com/s/g3a8rvrmlw52zl8/Screenshot%202018-04-19%2014.46.19.png?dl=0) * My custom options only show in the top level menu variable `$mw_adminimize_menu`, so they are never checked here. * The built in submenu choices have IDs of `woocommerce__10006` and `woocommerce__10007`. However, when we look the ID that’s being created for the item using `$menu_slug.' __' . $subindex` You can see it actually creates: `woocommerce__10`: [https://www.dropbox.com/s/rwgn5q3hcuhalla/Screenshot%202018-04-19%2014.49.55.png?dl=0](https://www.dropbox.com/s/rwgn5q3hcuhalla/Screenshot%202018-04-19%2014.49.55.png?dl=0) * This means neither option matches and the menu is not removed! * Plugin Contributor [Frank Bueltge](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bueltge/) * (@bueltge) * [8 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-submenu-items/#post-10202156) * The debug in Storm is not necessary, but helpful. The debug function in the plugin list the same topic. I’m wonder that the submenu-pages are stored in the menu variable. But be note that all custom settings will add to the menu var. It is possible to see this live, get access? maybe a mail to me. Is not easy to debug for me, because I haven’t the plugins, themes that create this menu items. * Thread Starter [Iconic](https://wordpress.org/support/users/iconicwp/) * (@iconicwp) * [8 years, 1 month ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/custom-submenu-items/#post-10202173) * The plugins are my own, so I could send you one with a licence for you to test?
