I am in need of a Drupal module that will allow to give a certain group of users the permissions to access admin/build/menu screen, but be able to administer only a certain menu. Basically a permissions menu per roles.
I've tried a few modules, Menu Ownership(*also tried Menu Perms, Menu Access, Delegate Menu Admin*) even does exactly what I need, but it requires Rebuilding Permissions, which I am afraid to do because I have a {node_access} table with 17000rows(I know, extremely huge!).
If anyone can suggest me a good lightweight module that does permissions for menus, I would really appreciate it!
Thanks!
I think you're looking for Menu Admin per Menu
By default, Drupal allows only users with "administrer menu
permission" to add, modify or delete menu items. In case you want for
instance to let certain users manage primary links or secondary links
but not navigation menu, this module provides this functionality
.

I have deployed wso2am4.0.0 on my vm. I am going to hide some menus in https://localhost:9443/carbon but don't know how to achive that.
I want to hide menus like below:
From my experience these menu's can't be hidden unless you decide to change the UI design yourself. Users who log in will only be shown submenus inside these menus when they have the correct role for them. So for example a user would not see the "Datasources", "Message tracing" and "Server roles" listed there if they don't have the roles to support that.
In a website I am working on, a customer wants another menu with multiple dropdowns under the main navigation menu.
Instead of using the typical menu features associated with Drupal's Bootstrap theme, I used pills.
Is it possible to enable some users to view these pills but not others? I know it is possible to do so with pages.
I have enabled each user to have their own page, which only they can see.
Ideally, I'd like for each user to be able to see a "My Profile" Pill (or Menu, or Button, whatever works), that directs them to their own page.
The problem I've been having is that in the pill drop-down menu, they can also see everyone else's link to their page, even though when they click it, they can't access another user's page.
Also, I have tried the same thing with the Main Navigation Menu that is already built into the Bootstrap theme, and it works just not with the pills.
I can't seem to find any code that references this either.
I just purchased and installed UberMenu plugin version v3.2.1.1, followed the setup exactly the way they described, and I'm able to see the Ubermenu instance in my front page, as it should be.
However, I can't access the customization area of the menu, and therefore I can't tweak it my own way.
When I go to Appearance -> Menus and click on the Uber button on any menu item, all I get is an empty options popup, just like the image below. None of the tabs present any content, it's just like the plugin scripts weren't being loaded.
However I see that blue popup in the lower right end of the screen saying it was being loaded correctly, and it's gone properly when it ends the job.
What can I do to enable/load correctly the configuration options for this plugin?
Thanks!
There are generally 2 possibilities that can make this happen:
A PHP error occurs (for example, a memory limit exception), preventing the page from loading the content critical to the menu item settings panel. You can check if that's the case by viewing your Menus Panel page source and seeing if you have a closing HTML tag.
or
The theme alters the admin menu structure via a custom Walker, resulting in the plugin not being able to find the appropriate data within the admin menu items to generate the settings panel. This is not very common, but can happen with themes that offer their own custom menu item settings within the Appearance > Menus Panel, as they alter the standard item markup to suit their needs.

The Drupal webiste I'm working on: http://student17.cas181s.com/project
I have a menu dropdown, with menu items that have children, I've already check-boxed the "show as expanded" for literally all my menu items. Visitors viewing my front-end cannot see this (only I can see this, in back-end, as admin). Why is this? I'm using Bartik 7.34 theme.
Check out privilages for anonymous user for that content that your friends cant see. In drupal if someone can't see page content he won't see link to that page also. Maku sure that pages are published - admin can see all the content but most of the user groups only published one. At end...clear the cache.
Anybody knows a good plugin for Wordpress to provide a nice Admin dashboard which also cleans the regular Wordpress update mess. I do not want customer getting distracted with the loaded content in the backend with events, news and updates (messy content updates) in the Backend login? Thanks in advance.
I'm not sure if I understand what you're needing. If you're looking for a way to hide a lot of the stuff in the WordPress control panel, Adminimize is a good plugin: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/adminimize/
There are also plugins to hide the update reminder: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/hide-update-reminder/
And to control what appears on the add/edit post page: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-cms-post-control/
Using a combination of the above, you can redirect users directly to the post page (skipping the dashboard) when they log in, and limit what they see in the control panel menu to an amazing extent. You can allow them to see widgets, for instance, but not see the themes page.
Hope this helps.

In the latest WordPress versions, >2.7, you can set the admin screen to display only a subset of the Admin widgets.
Just click on Screen Options at the top right of the Admin page to reveal option checkboxes.
For example, you can uncheck "WordPress Development Blog", and "Other WordPress News". You can even format the screen to be just one column and only show the "QuickPress" widget.
