[PROMO] I built a lightweight plugin to declutter and reorganize the WordPress admin menu for clients

5 November 2026 at 15:01

Hi everyone,

One of the biggest headaches when handing off WordPress and WooCommerce sites to clients is dashboard bloat. As soon as a few key plugins are installed, the admin sidebar turns into a wall of menus, settings pages, and upsell tabs that overwhelm clients and generate unnecessary support tickets.

To solve this cleanly without adding bulky third-party dependencies, I built Precise Expressions Admin Menu Reorganizer Lite.

Lite features:

  • Create up to two effective custom menu rules.
  • Move Comments under Posts (built in).
  • Add the WooCommerce Catalog Hub with links to common product and store screens.
  • Rename moved menu items and retain their capabilities.
  • Preserve saved historical rules beyond the Lite two-rule entitlement, so upgrading, downgrading, or a Pro license change never deletes those rules.

The Lite version is 100% free and open-source on the official WordPress repository:

WordPress.org: https://wordpress.org/plugins/precise-expressions-admin-menu-reorganizer/

Would love candid feedback from fellow agency owners and freelancers on the setup workflow and edge-case compatibility with complex admin setups.
