WEBinP Your guide to resolving CMS optimization, Web Development and SEO problems
It often happens that you need to delete all the menu items. This is easy to do using the single-item deletion method, but how to solve the problem if there are 100 menu items? Yes, there are many sites with long lists of directories/categories and huge navigation.
Another case: you bought a template, imported demo data and got a long menu that needs to be deleted. There are two easy ways to do this.
Option 1: Create a new menu and remove the old one
An obvious option, but not everyone comes to it. You simply create a new menu in the WordPress admin under Appearance > Menu > Create New Menu
After creating the menu at the bottom, you can choose a position to display it on the site (Primary Menu, Top Menu, Footer Menu etc.), then go to the old menu with a lot of menu items and delete it.
Option 2: Bulk Remove WordPress Menu Items Using a Plugin
This option is suitable if your site is the site where a large structure is used, and you periodically need to clean the menu from unused sections.
The plugin WP Edit Menu can help solve this problem.
Once installed, when editing a menu, you will have the ability to multiselect to remove a lot of menu items in the WordPress admin panel.
