Page Menu Organizer

Page Menu Organizer is a free WordPress plugin that adds configurable page hierarchy shortcuts under the Pages admin menu.

Features

• Open a selected page's complete descendant hierarchy in one click
• See descendant counts directly in the Pages menu and settings table
• Keep draft, pending, private, scheduled, and published descendants together
• Use native WordPress capabilities, nonces, admin tables, and notices
• No account, tracking, external requests, or build step

Requirements

• WordPress 6.0 or newer
• PHP 7.4 or newer

Installation

1. Download page-menu-organizer-1.1.1.zip from the latest GitHub release.
2. In WordPress, open Plugins > Add New > Upload Plugin.

4. Open Tools > Page Menu Organizer and select the page hierarchies you want in the Pages menu.

You can also clone this repository into wp-content/plugins/page-menu-organizer.

How it works

The plugin stores only the IDs of selected published top-level pages in the WordPress options table. Each selection becomes a shortcut under Pages. Opening a shortcut filters the native Pages list to every descendant in that hierarchy, regardless of depth.

Settings changes require the manage_options capability and a valid WordPress nonce. Page shortcuts remain subject to WordPress page-editing capabilities.

Development

The production source is maintained in the coded-letter-monorepo and released to this public repository. The plugin has no build step.

Validate PHP changes with:
