This plugin is an Addon for the amazing WPML Plugin.
The WP Menus Sync feature of WPML can be very useful if all the content that is going to be part of the menu items in the navigation menu(s) too already has been translated. However not all people (developers) have that luxury and therefore choose to translate the navigation menu(s) manually.
In that case it would not be a good idea when the client unwittingly clicks on that WPML submenu (or on the synchronization link in the Menus page) and starts syncing menus.
It is therefore that I have developed this small Addon. Of course people other than developers can also use the addon if they don’t want to use the navigation menu synchronization tool of WPML.
First of all it checks whether WPML has been installed. If it has it will hide the synchronization link from the Appearance > Menus page.
It also removes the link from the WPML submenu in the Dashboard sidebar.
The Addon doesn’t come with any settings.
I have decided to only support this plugin through <a href="https://github.com/senlin/so-remove-wpml-menu-sync/issues" rel="nofollow ugc">Github</a>. Therefore, if you have any questions, need help and/or want to make a feature request, please open an issue over at Github. You can also browse through open and closed issues to find what you are looking for and perhaps even help others.
PLEASE DO NOT POST YOUR ISSUES VIA THE WORDPRESS FORUMS
Thanks for your understanding and cooperation.

This plugin provides the ability to configure WPSiteSync with an HTTP Authentication username and password to be used when communicating with a Target server that is set up with Authentication.
Usage Scenarios:
If you’re using WPSiteSync with a staging server but want to limit access to the staging server via HTTP Authentication, this is the plugin for you.
This add-on plugin for WPSiteSync allows you to configure an HTTP Authentication username and password that will be used in communicating with the Target server; allowing you to PUSH and PULL changes from your local site to your password protected staging site.
This plugin works the same whether your Source Site is a local install via DesktopServer or other local development environment, or a publicly hosted site. For more information on DesktopServer and local development tools, please visit our web site at: <a href="https://serverpress.com/get-desktopserver/" rel="nofollow ugc">https://serverpress.com/get-desktopserver/</a>
How it Works:
The WPSiteSync for HTTP Authentication add-on plugin sends the username and password with each API request made to the Target site. This allows you to configure your Target site with .htaccess rules that will limit access to user that have the password.

WPSiteSync for HTTP Authentication

It does what it says it does

It allowed me to configure my target site with .htaccess rules that will limit access to the user that has that password.

This worked like a charm.

Adds support for sites protected with HTTP Authentication via .htaccess rules.
