CoursePress hook to all the network

I have Coursepress instaled in the network but I need to add a hook so that when the user create a site don’t have immediatily the menu of coursePress.

Actually users choose their website with ProSite plugin, and automaticly the menu CoursePress is ready on their website because I activate CoursePress pro plugin for the network.

And they don’t have access of plugin or CoursesPress setting, and some of them don’t need to use CoursePress.

Hello Sarah,

hope you're doing good today!

I've made couple of tests in a site of mine and I feel a bit lost on this.

If you network activate CoursePress plugin, then it has separate options per site, so each subsite admin can remove this option from here:

As you will notice in above screenshot, if there's no navigation menu assigned at all, then these elements can't be added automatically. This gives you another workaround, as you can use New Blog Templates plugin and create a basic template without any menus assigned.

Another workaround would be not having CoursePress activated in whole network, so it won't be always active in each subsite, but admins can activate it, if they need it.

Hope that was some help, please do let me know, if I'm missing something here! :slight_smile:

Warm regards,

Dimitris

Hi Dimitris,

Thanks for help but we tried to replace CoursePress by another LMS without that users feeling a change so that’s better to hide CoursePress menu.

I wonder if I use a CSS code (mu_plugin) to hide the menu, is ithat can works?

Let me know please if there are another solution.

Regards,

Sarah

Hey Sarah !

Hope you are having a great day!

You can add the following code in a mu-plugin to hide the CoursePress Pro menu items:
```
<?php

add_action( 'wp_head', 'wpmudev_hide_cp_menu_items' );

function wpmudev_hide_cp_menu_items() {

echo '<style>

li#menu-item-cp-courses, li#menu-item-cp-dashboard, li#menu-item-cp-logout {

display: none;

}

</style>';

}
```
This’ll require you to paste the mentioned code in a PHP file that ends with the extension .php, e.g. “anyname.php“. This PHP file should be placed in {your root WordPress folder}/wp-content/mu-plugins (you’ll need to create the folder named “mu-plugins” if it is not there already).

Hope this helps. Let us know if this works for you. Thanks!

Kind regards,

Nahid
