I was just noticing that it's very redundant to have a menu under "Dashboard" that only contains "Dashboard." I realize that plugins (such as Akismet) may add menu items, but shouldn't WordPress perform a check to see how many menu items there are? That way, it could get rid of the expandable menu if it doesn't need it, thus granting one more slot worth of screen real estate to the user.
I understand that you can collapse these menus if you want to, and that a cookie will save those preferences, but on my current install (downloaded from the trunk this morning), when I click on the "Dashboard" menu, it takes me to the dashboard AND opens the dashboard menu (which reveals nothing more than a second, redundant link to the dashboard). If there was an option to permanently lock a menu in the closed position, I would use it for the dashboard menu. In my opinion, this should be addressed prior to the release of 2.7. Did anyone else notice this? Does it really seem like something that should be fixed? Is it something that should be put off until 2.8? -Steve _______________________________________________ wp-testers mailing list [email protected] http://lists.automattic.com/mailman/listinfo/wp-testers
