Add Snippet To Project
As a WordPress user, you might have noticed a Help tab displayed at the top of the admin dashboard. While this might be helpful for some users, it can be distracting or unnecessary for others. Luckily, it’s possible to remove this Help tab if you don’t need it. In this article, we’ll guide you on how to remove the top Help tab from your admin dashboard and simplify your WordPress experience.
function wpturbo_remove_help_tab() {
$screen = get_current_screen();
$screen->remove_help_tabs();
}
add_action( 'admin_head', 'wpturbo_remove_help_tab' );
The code snippet above is used for removing the top help tab from the WordPress admin dashboard. Removing the top help tab simplifies the user interface and can make it easier for your users to navigate.
The first line of the code snippet initializes a new function, wpturbo_remove_help_tab(). This will be the function that is responsible for removing the top help tab from the dashboard.
The next line uses the get_current_screen() function to retrieve the current screen object. This object contains information about the current page being displayed, including the help tabs that are available.
Then we call the remove_help_tabs() method on the $screen object to remove all help tabs for the current screen. This effectively removes the top help tab from the admin dashboard.
Finally, we use the add_action() function to hook our wpturbo_remove_help_tab() function into the admin_head action. This ensures that the function is executed at the right time to remove the help tab from the dashboard.
Overall, this is a simple and effective way to remove the top help tab from the WordPress admin dashboard, using just a few lines of code.
