About this plugin
Menu Visibility Control is a lightweight, privacy-friendly WordPress plugin that lets you decide exactly who sees each menu item, directly inside the WordPress menu editor.
No settings pages.
No lock-in.
No performance overhead.
Everything is managed where it belongs: Appearance → Menus.
👁️ Visibility Options Per Menu Item
You can control visibility based on:
- 👥 Everyone
- 🔒 Logged-in users
- 🚪 Logged-out users
- 🧩 Specific user roles (Administrator, Editor, Subscriber, etc.)
- 📱 Device type (Desktop / Mobile)
- 📄 Specific pages (auto-detected list)
All conditions are optional and safely combined.
