Privilege Menu is a WordPress plugin designed to provide enhanced control over menu item visibility based on user status and roles. This plugin allows website administrators to display or hide specific menu items depending on whether a user is logged in, logged out, or assigned a particular role. By eliminating the need for modifications in the theme's functions.php file, users can maintain menu restrictions without the risk of losing changes during theme updates.

With its fine-grained permission settings, Privilege Menu addresses common challenges faced by WordPress users when managing menu visibility. It utilizes a modified version of the Nav Menu Walker class, which may conflict with other plugins that use custom Nav Menu Walkers. Users should be aware of this potential issue and refer to the FAQ for guidance on accessing the plugin's options in the Admin Panel.
