WordPress remove admin menu item - wordpress

Question

Generally it's not a problem to remove wp-admin menu items, e.g:
add_action( 'admin_init', 'my_remove_menu_pages' );
function my_remove_menu_pages() {
remove_submenu_page( 'themes.php', 'theme-editor.php' );
}
However I'm currently struggling with the following page:
admin.php?page=wpml-string-translation/menu/string-translation.php
What's the best method to have this one removed?

Answer 1

I think you're add_action needs a numeric as a 3rd argument (a priority).

Example
If you have this add_action:
add_action( 'admin_bar_menu', 'wp_admin_bar_wp_menu', 10 );
To remove it, it needs a higher priority (11):
<?php # -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
/**
* Plugin Name: Remove WP Menu From Tool Bar
*/
if ( ! function_exists( 't5_remove_wp_menu' ) )
{
// The action is added with a priority of 10, we take one step later.
add_action( 'init', 't5_remove_wp_menu', 11 );
/**
* Remove the WP menu action.
*/
function t5_remove_wp_menu()
{
is_admin_bar_showing() &&
remove_action( 'admin_bar_menu', 'wp_admin_bar_wp_menu', 10 );
}
}

Answer 2

Based on the previous answers, here's the completed solution for both WPML user menus:
function remove_menu_items()
{
//removes the 'String Translation' menu item from editor's admin screen
if (defined('WPML_ST_FOLDER')){
remove_menu_page(WPML_ST_FOLDER.'/menu/string-translation.php');
}
//removes the 'Translation Interface' menu item from editor's admin screen
if (defined('WPML_TM_FOLDER')){
remove_menu_page(WPML_TM_FOLDER . '/menu/translations-queue.php');
}
}
add_action('admin_menu', 'remove_menu_items', 999);

Answer 3

This should work,
add_action( 'admin_init', 'my_remove_menu_pages' );
function my_remove_menu_pages() {
remove_submenu_page( 'admin.php?page=wpml-string-translation/menu/string-translation.php', 'admin.php?page=wpml-string-translation/menu/string-translation.php' );
}

Answer 4

The working solution:
function remove_menu_items()
{
//removes the String Translation menu item from editor's admin screen
if (defined('WPML_ST_FOLDER'))
remove_menu_page(WPML_ST_FOLDER.'/menu/string-translation.php');
}
add_action('admin_menu', 'remove_menu_items', 999);
It needs a higher priority from which it was created and to avoid any issues let's use the same WPML constant, which we can find on the file "wpml-string-translation-class.php" at the plugin folder, line 212 as of version 1.6.1 of the WPML String Transtation plugin.
