Hide plugins give WordPress site owners granular control over what is visible to different users — hiding admin toolbar elements, dashboard widgets, menu items, plugins, theme options, or entire sections of the WordPress backend from clients or lower-privilege users. They are widely used by agencies and freelancers who want to deliver a clean, simplified WordPress admin experience to clients without exposing settings that could cause accidental breakage. On the front end, hide plugins can conditionally show or conceal content blocks, pages, or navigation items based on login status, user role, membership level, or other conditions. This category also includes plugins that hide login pages or change default WordPress URLs to reduce exposure to automated brute-force attacks and credential-stuffing bots.
