<p>DP Admin Access Menu is a powerful WordPress plugin that allows administrators to control which backend menu items are visible to specific users. This is perfect for customizing the admin experience for different user roles and improving security by limiting access to unnecessary menu items.</p>
<p>Whether you’re managing a team of content creators, restricting access for client accounts, or creating a streamlined admin experience, DP Admin Access Menu gives you granular control over what each user can see in the WordPress admin area.</p>
<h4>Key Features</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>User Selection</strong>: Easy-to-use dropdown to select any WordPress user</li>
<li><strong>Menu Control</strong>: Checkbox interface for all WordPress admin menu items including child menus</li>
<li><strong>Superadmin Protection</strong>: First administrator (superadmin) always has full access</li>
<li><strong>Useradmin Support</strong>: Configure menu access for other administrators (useradmins)</li>
<li><strong>Unlimited Users</strong>: Configure menu access for unlimited users</li>
<li><strong>Unlimited Menus</strong>: Select unlimited menu items per user</li>
<li><strong>Real-time Filtering</strong>: Menu items are automatically hidden/shown based on saved settings</li>
<li><strong>User-friendly Interface</strong>: Clean admin interface with select all/deselect all options</li>
<li><strong>Edit & Delete</strong>: Manage configured users with edit and delete functionality</li>
<li><strong>Parent-Child Menu Logic</strong>: Selecting a parent menu automatically selects its children</li>
<li><strong>Menu Counter</strong>: Real-time counter showing selected menus</li>
<li><strong>URL Protection</strong>: Prevents direct access to restricted admin pages via URL</li>
</ul>
<h4>How It Works</h4>
<ol>
<li>Go to <strong>Menu Access</strong> in the WordPress admin sidebar (under DP Admin Access Menu)</li>
<li>Select a user from the dropdown (or edit an existing configured user)</li>
<li>Check/uncheck the menu items you want to show/hide for that user</li>
<li>Click <strong>Save Settings</strong></li>
<li>The selected user will only see the checked menu items when they log in</li>
</ol>
<h4>Use Cases</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>Client Management</strong>: Give clients access only to specific sections of their website</li>
<li><strong>Team Collaboration</strong>: Limit access for editors, authors, or contributors to their relevant areas</li>

<h4>Superadmin vs Useradmin</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>Superadmin</strong>: The first administrator user (lowest user ID) always has full access to all menus and cannot be restricted. This ensures you never lock yourself out of your WordPress admin.</li>
<li><strong>Useradmin</strong>: Other administrators can have their menu access configured and will only see assigned menus. This allows you to create different admin experiences for different administrator accounts.</li>
</ul>

<p>👁If approved, the user receives their login details and can access your site immediately.<br />
👁If denied, they’ll be kept out—and can’t even log in.<br />
👁Pending users stay locked out until you make a decision.</p>

New User Approve


Great support and great functions. Really liked how it makes the approval process very easy.


Amazing


Doesn't actually do much. No bulk deny in free version. Can't turn off admin emails in free version. Actually creates more of an admin headache. Uninstalling soon.



Had a problem with the plugin's interaction with our page builder - Muddasir Hayat and Uzair Hanif stepped in and stepped up to help fix it immediately!  Responsive and effective; can't ask for much more :)


Outstanding support

WordPress user approval plugin to moderate registrations. Approve or deny real users and prevent fake signups to control who registers on site.
