Hide Menu Items by Role

常見問題集

How do I control who can see a menu item?

When you create or edit a menu item, new fields will appear where you can:
1. Select which user roles should affect visibility
2. Choose between “Hide from these roles” (default) or “Show only to these roles”
3. Set login state visibility:
– Everyone (no restriction)
– Logged-out users only
– Logged-in users only

Can I hide menu items for multiple user roles?

Yes, you can select multiple user roles that should be affected by the visibility rules.

What’s the difference between “Hide from these roles” and “Show only to these roles”?

• “Hide from these roles”: Menu item is visible to everyone EXCEPT the selected roles (original behavior)

• “Show only to these roles”: Menu item is visible ONLY to the selected roles (new behavior)

  Note: When using “Show only to these roles”, if no roles are selected, the item will be visible to everyone (to avoid accidentally hiding items during setup).

How does the login state visibility work?

The login state setting works independently of role-based rules:
– Everyone: No restriction based on login status
– Logged-out users only: Item is only visible to visitors who are not logged in
– Logged-in users only: Item is only visible to users who are logged in

If the login state rule is set to ‘Logged-out users only’, the role-based rules are not checked (for performance).

How do I change the visibility settings for a menu item?

When you create or edit a menu item, the visibility fields will appear where you can modify:
– The selected user roles
– The visibility mode (hide/show)
– The login state setting
