Wider Admin Menu is a standalone plugin built, maintained & operated by the friendly folks over at <a href="https://www.machothemes.com/" rel="nofollow ugc">MachoThemes</a>.
Wider Admin Menu is a lightweight plugin that lets you set the width of your admin menu from the default <code>160px</code> up to <code>300px</code>.
A separate stylesheet is also included if you wish to avoid Yet Another Plugin. See FAQ.
This plugin will leave no trace! If you delete the plugin, all settings will be removed from the database. Guaranteed. However, simply deactivating it will leave your settings in place, as expected.

Great helper plugin! I just copied the css to my build system and made the width a scss variable. Fast adjustments! :))

Great helper


This should be the default Admin left navigation width!



Brilliant plugin - I just wish that Gutenberg editor and others recognised this width, as they seem to be left-aligned to the original width, hiding an important part of their interfaces.



Maybe there's another way to implement this? Or maybe an alternative would be knocking the font size down a couple of pixels but within the original width for less wrapped text, or maybe just change the way text wraps.



Nice try though, appreciate someone making the effort for the obvious issue that core has missed.


Should be default


I did not realize that narrow Admin Menu is what makes me uncomfortable until I saw this plugin. 



Installed it and it indeed does help.


Simple and it does help

This plugin gives the facility for hiding and showing the admin menu of the side and top bars.
This plugin gives an easy way to hide admin menus by checking the checkbox of a particular menu in the form and then submitting the form so that checked menus hide from the admin.
Admin also can hide menu according to the role of users.
