Remove "Content" dropdown in Admin Menu was created by ThatComputerDude

Now that we have a main menu item "FlexiContent" in the admin control panel, having the "Content" drop down is a little redundant and confusing for users.

How can you remove it from the main menu in the admin control panel?

Thanks in advance!

This is what I did and it removed the "Content" menu item. So if this is not the best way to do it, let me know.

I went into /administrator/modules/mod_famenu

Opened helper.php

Went down to line 148 and removed:

Code:

		/*
		 * Content SubMenu
		 */
		if ($user->gid > $params->get('hide_content', 0)) {
			$menu->addChild(new JMenuFANode(JText::_('Content')), true);
			$menu->addChild(new JMenuFANode(JText::_('Article Manager'), 'index.php?option=com_content', 'class:article'));
			if ($manageTrash) {
				$menu->addChild(new JMenuFANode(JText::_('Article Trash'), 'index.php?option=com_trash&task=viewContent', 'class:trash'));
			}
			$menu->addSeparator();
			$menu->addChild(new JMenuFANode(JText::_('Section Manager'), 'index.php?option=com_sections&scope=content', 'class:section'));
			$menu->addChild(new JMenuFANode(JText::_('Category Manager'), 'index.php?option=com_categories&section=com_content', 'class:category'));
			$menu->addSeparator();
			$menu->addChild(new JMenuFANode(JText::_('Frontpage Manager'), 'index.php?option=com_frontpage', 'class:frontpage'));
	
			$menu->getParent();
		}

Or you can do it the easy way and just go into Module Manager - click on Administrator to see the Admin modules.

Open Admin Menu for FLEXIaccess and change the groups that can see Content and Help

Cool thanks for this tips

FLEXIcontent is Free but involves a very big effort on our part.
Like the our support? (for a bug-free FC, despite being huge extension) Like the features? Like the ongoing development and future commitment to FLEXIcontent?
