Enhanced Menu Customization Options for Classic Monks

I would like to suggest a small but useful customization feature for the Classic Monks plugin. It would be great to have an option to control how the admin menu is displayed, specifically the ability to arrange the menu list from the left side and selectively enable or disable certain menu items (such as Messages, Media, or similar sections) on a per-account or per-user-role basis.

This kind of flexibility would allow site administrators to create a cleaner and more focused admin experience, especially for clients or team members who don’t need access to every feature. For example, hiding Media or Messages for specific accounts could reduce confusion and help users focus only on the tools relevant to their role.

The idea wouldn’t need to be overly complex—just a simple settings panel where menu items can be toggled on or off, and optionally reordered, would already add a lot of value. Overall, this would be a small enhancement that could significantly improve usability and customization while staying true to the lightweight and classic feel of the plugin.

Thank you again for a great suggestion.

Another way to do it is to bundle it with the upcoming role manager feature, instead of just adding the menu conditions for the existing users.

We will add it to the feature requests page.
