This plugin allows you to add custom links and menus to the toolbar in the WordPress admin dashboard. By adding custom links, you can make the WordPress administrative section into the center of your admin universe. A typical use case would involve adding the link to your web host’s CPanel.

This WordPress plugin is built to extend and remove the noob things in the WordPress SEO (WPSEO / Yoast SEO) plugin for you or clients who don’t care and just want a good plain technical SEO plugin.
It currently disables the following
<ul>
<li>“All SEO Scores” dropdown select on posts & pages listings</li>
<li>SEO dot, SEO Title, Meta Desc, & Focus KW columns on posts & pages listings</li>
<li>“SEO: (dot) Check” in publish metabox</li>
<li>“Page Analysis” tab content in posts metabox</li>
</ul>
What else I want it to do later if ever possible
<ul>
<li>“SEO” dropdown from admin bar. doesn’t annoy enough to fix</li>
<li>“Focus Keyword” input section and entire tab in the post/page screen metabox</li>
</ul>
All respect to the Yoast SEO crew (joostdevalk & team) still. A while ago I opened a proposal in their github repo to address this: <a href="https://github.com/Yoast/wordpress-seo/issues/869" rel="nofollow ugc">WP SEO Issue #869</a> and later a <a href="https://github.com/Yoast/wordpress-seo/pull/2498" rel="nofollow ugc">Pull Request #2498</a> to try and address the post admin box content.
Feel free to comment in there that you want this implemented as an option or a more advanced filter – But until then here’s a plugin to do it.
If you think you’d like to contribute <a href="https://github.com/chuckreynolds/wpseo-nuke-noob-stuff" rel="nofollow ugc">on Github</a>, that’d be rad.
