With this tutorial, we will show you how to hide a sub-menu with a plugin we’re developing all the while keeping the slugs intact if required for developed plugin. (add_submenu_page<\/a>)<\/p>\n

First, we need a menu and a sub-menu for our WordPress plugin.
\nLet’s take a look at the function below; we see that the plugin has a Main Tab and Sub-Menu tab that are displayed on the WordPress dashboard with the name of the plugin.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n

We want to keep our Main page of the WordPress plugin, but if we want we can hide the sub-menu.<\/p>\n
In order to do so, simply add null<\/strong> in add_submenu_page. This allows us to keep the sub-menu slug in a tab or navigation item of our plugin.<\/p>\n\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n
