WordPress Hide Pages Plugin

I am proud to release our new Hide Pages Plugin. Hide Pages provides a simple way of hiding pages from your navigation bar.

This plugin adds a new sidebar panel in the add and edit pages within your WordPress admin. To use, install it to the plugins or mu-plugins directory, edit or add a page, and then just tick the “Page Visibility” checkbox to hide a page from the navigation.

We like this better then other similar plugins because it contains less code, works with MU, and uses native WordPress plugin hooks. It is also our first GPL released plugin.

Update: Works with WordPress 2.5

    Hi, I’ve used your plugin on other sites and it worked great.

    But on a new site running 2.63 it doesn’t work. Tried reinstalling, re-downloading the plugin. The page visibility option in Write-Page panel is there and I’ve checked the box but it won’t hide the page. Furthermore, the new sidebar checkbox in the add/edit pages doesn’t seem to appear,..just the checkbox below the WYSIWYG panel shows up in the “write page” mode.

    I found this plugin from wordpress support and there were comments that this plugin has some problems. Are those problem already fixed?

    Bug Report:
    Plugin Version 0.1
    Wordpress Version 2.7.1

    Ever time I update one of my pages, it adds a new custom field with the name “exclude_page” instead of simply updating the existing value. For example, if I updated my page 5 times, I will have 5 custom fields reading “exclude_page”. This happens whether I change the page visibility or not. I didn’t check my database but I’m guessing that instead of updating the value for that page, it creates a new one every time. Feel free to contact me if you need more info about the bug.

    Sincerely,
    Glisca

      Same Issue at my site. Everytime I save a page a new custom fields exclude page is created. Deleting them is time consuming and VERY frustrating. I loved this plugin at first, but this issue alone makes me wary of all others. Be ware before installing the exclude pages plugin till this issue is resolved.

    Thanks a million for this plugin.

    I’m using it to hide all our targeted landing pages which were built for ad campaigns. No need to have these in the main menu so this has saved us a lot of headache.

    Thanks very much. – This should really be a part of the core code. Maybe Automattic might put in an offer :)

    Well done on the good work.

    Hi, Having the same problem as Glisca —
    Everytime I update one of my pages, it adds a new custom field with the name “exclude_page” instead of simply updating the existing value. For example, if I updated my page 5 times, I will have 5 custom fields reading “exclude_page”.

    I can delete the extra custom fields but is a bit of a pain

  9. Posted May 24, 2009 at 5:28 am | Permalink

    Look no more, just download this.

    With a simple checkbox you can exclude the pages from the menu.
    Very, very easy and one you don’t wanna miss…

    Thanks a bunch for this amazing plugin.

    I have been looking for this kind of a plugin for long time….its such a coincidence that i came to this website for e-Commerce plugin ….and I found this one.

    I wish had something like this to hide Categories as well :-))

  11. Posted June 18, 2009 at 1:59 pm | Permalink

    Does this plugin work with the latest version of word press?

  12. Posted July 13, 2009 at 11:57 am | Permalink

    Yeah, there is definitely a small problem with this plugin creating new custom fields every time the page is submitted. I may dig into why this is happening tonight; if I find anything out, I’ll post back here!

    This sounds really good and I plan on trying it out. Quick question, maybe even a stupid one. I understand it makes the pages invisible on the page menu, but are the pages still visible to the search engines?

      Just wondering why this great plugin doesn’t come up when I search for plugins inside of wordpress by name or author – seems a shame as it’s so much better than anything else they have – great work

    This didn’t work with the new wordpress, so I found another that worked great for this. http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-hide-post/

    It has all the options in the bottom right hand corner of the page menu when you activate it.

  35. Posted November 20, 2010 at 2:56 am | Permalink

    Supper Dupper!

    You don’t know how long i have wanted something like this i thought i was crazy to think i wanted one. Often want to make full ‘no side bar’ pages and not want to fill the main menu up. Then i just put the link in somewhere to the page anywhere i want.

    I haven’t even downloaded it yet and know I’m going to use it a tone.

  36. Posted November 20, 2010 at 2:55 pm | Permalink

    You should put what search term to use in the WP admin to add new plugin i had trouble finding it and could had to manually download it. Cheers.

  37. Posted December 30, 2010 at 2:08 am | Permalink

    Thanks for the post, its just what I have been looking for…

  39. Posted May 1, 2011 at 6:38 pm | Permalink

    I tried using it, set it up and everything because originally in my Shopp program, I could link the cart, check out, and your orders tabs with the “Parent” option. Then I switched my theme and have been customizing everything and the drop down menu shows on top of my header image. So therefore, I downloaded this plugin in hopes of it working, and it still is doing the same thing! What am I doing wrong here or how can i fix this? THANKS!

    I Like your website, I’m currently looking for an e commerce website

  41. Posted September 15, 2011 at 11:17 pm | Permalink

    Amazing! This blog looks just like my old one! It’s on a entirely different subject but it has pretty much the same page layout and design. Excellent choice of colors!

  42. Posted December 7, 2011 at 2:33 am | Permalink

    I’ve used it before, works well.

  43. Posted January 5, 2012 at 8:19 pm | Permalink

    Dude, I think you can find a blunder from the 1st paragraph, but We have to say pretty intriguing posting. Many thanks, ree Slappey

    Great, this is exactly what I was looking for! Thanks :)
