Description

Hide Current Page From Menu – Advanced is a lightweight WordPress plugin that automatically hides the menu item corresponding to the current page, post, or custom post type.
It works dynamically — no need to edit your menus manually — and supports nested menu structures, specific menu locations, and role-based visibility.

Perfect for:
– Hiding the “current” page to simplify navigation
– Restricting certain menus for logged-in or logged-out users
– Keeping dynamic menus clean without coding

Features

  • Automatically hides the current page’s menu item.
  • Supports nested (hierarchical) menus and ancestor cleanup.
  • Works with pages, posts, and custom post types.
  • Role-based visibility controls.
  • Menu location targeting.
  • Lightweight and optimized for performance — no front-end JavaScript required.

Installation

  1. Upload the plugin folder to /wp-content/plugins/.
  2. Activate the plugin from the Plugins menu in WordPress.
  3. Go to Settings Menu Visibility to configure exclusions by role, menu, or post type.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I configure the plugin?

Go to Settings Menu Visibility and choose which menu items, user roles, or locations to exclude.

Does this plugin support custom post types?

Yes, it supports pages, posts, and any registered custom post type that appears in menus.

Will it affect my theme or menu design?

No. The plugin works only on the PHP menu output layer using standard WordPress filters — it’s fully theme-safe and doesn’t modify your actual menu data.
