In today’s post, I am excited to share a step-by-step guide on how to create an admin dashboard in WordPress. If you want to customize your WordPress admin area, this tutorial is for you. Let’s dive right in!
Step 1: Access the WordPress Dashboard
First, log in to your WordPress dashboard. This is where you will manage your website and install the necessary plugins for customization.
Step 2: Install the Admin Menu Editor Plugin
Next, navigate to the "Plugins" section on the left-hand menu and click on the “Add New” option. In the search bar, type "Admin Menu Editor" to find the plugin that will help you customize your admin dashboard.
Once you find the Admin Menu Editor plugin, click the "Install Now" button. After the installation process is complete, make sure to click the "Activate" button to enable the plugin.
Step 3: Navigate to the Menu Editor Settings
Now that the plugin is activated, go to the "Settings" option in the left-hand menu. From the submenu that appears, select "Menu Editor." This is where you will have the power to edit your admin dashboard according to your preferences.
Step 4: Customize Your Dashboard
In the menu editor, you can easily modify various elements of your admin dashboard. For instance, let’s change the name of the “Dashboard” menu item. To do this, click on the downward arrow next to "Dashboard" and rename it to “Admin.”
Once you’ve made your changes, be sure to click on the "Save Changes" button. You will immediately see that the dashboard name has changed to “Admin.”
Step 5: Modify Menu Names and Positions
Beyond just renaming the dashboard, you can also change the names of other menu items like "Posts," "Media," "Pages," and "Comments." Feel free to customize them to fit your needs.
Additionally, you can adjust the position of the menus by clicking and dragging them to your preferred location. This flexibility ensures that your admin dashboard is organized in a way that works best for you.
Conclusion
And that’s it! You’ve successfully made customizations to your admin dashboard in WordPress. This simple adjustment can greatly improve your efficiency while using the platform.
