== Frequently Asked Questions ==

= Do the settings affect all users? =

Most settings apply to all users. Admin menu hiding can be configured per role (e.g., hide only for non-administrators).

= Can I restore hidden elements? =

Yes, simply uncheck the options in settings and the elements will be visible again.

= What happens when I disable comments? =

All comment functionality is removed: comments are closed on all posts/pages, existing comments are hidden, the Comments menu is removed, and pingbacks/trackbacks are disabled.

= Will hiding menus block access to those pages? =

No, menus are only hidden visually. Users can still access pages via direct links if they have the capability.
