Custom Admin/Dashboard CSS file to hide elements WordPress

  • SOLVED

Hi all,

Until now i have used Adminimize or myEASYhider to hide dashboard elements.

I am wondering if it is possible to add a custom Admin/Dasboard CSS file directed from my functions.php so that i can give display: none; to dashboard elements.

Or is their a way I can include CSS Display None elements into my existing functions.php file?

If i can do this, it would save me having to use plugins and save me a lot of time on each build!

I hope I have been clear enough?

Thanks

Create admin.css on your theme directory
You can style whatever element from there..
put this on your functions.php

function custom_admin_style(){
wp_register_style('admin_style', get_template_directory_uri().'/admin.css');
wp_enqueue_style('admin_style');
}
add_action('admin_init', 'custom_admin_style');

I use this plugin, as it not only allows you to hide any element, but it also gives you the ability to create your own.

Hello Justin,

I would like to offer two solutions which can have possible solutions to your problem. One of the link is from the WordPress codex at http://codex.wordpress.org/Creating_Admin_Themes

The second link is from Six Revisions (one of my favorite website) http://sixrevisions.com/wordpress/how-to-customize-the-wordpress-admin-area/ which goes into the details of how to customize the admin area of a WordPress installation.

If you are unable to find a solution on these pages may I request you to be more specific about the elements you want to hide.

Best of Luck!

An admin.css in your theme, with display:none for whatever you want to hide should do the trick. If its more than that, if you can describe, I can suggest better.
