Hide from the main menu: Announcements and Server Status WHMCS 7.5.1

[grpcom]

Hello

I have been searching within WHMCS for the past few days, if there is any option within the main settings panel to disable 2 options that are within the WHMCS menu:

- Announcements
- Server status

Can someone please tell me how I can disable those menu options.

Thanks in advance!

there are no options to disable it from the admin side - the way to remove them would be to use action hooks...

so create a .php file in /includes/hooks/, call it anything you like (e.g navbar.php) and paste the code below into it...

<?php

use WHMCS\View\Menu\Item as MenuItem;

add_hook('ClientAreaPrimaryNavbar', 1, function (MenuItem $primaryNavbar)
{
   if (!is_null($primaryNavbar->getChild('Network Status'))) {
       $primaryNavbar->removeChild('Network Status');
   }

   if (!is_null($primaryNavbar->getChild('Announcements'))) {
       $primaryNavbar->removeChild('Announcements');
   }
}); 

this removes those two links for clients who are not logged in; when logged in, clients can see those two links in the navbar and also the sidebar - it's simple to remove these links too, and i've certainly posted other hooks here that can do that.

Brian,

It's perfect, what I needed, it works very well and those options were hidden from my menu.

Thank you very much for the help!

you would only need to check logged in status if what you were removing was shown to both logged in and not logged in users....

generally, you just use $client = Menu::context('client'); and then check it's value to see whether the current user is logged in or not...
