    If you are looking to do this without all the bells and whistles of Admin Menu Editor, you can use a simple function.

    I made a 1 file plugin that had the function it, instead of using a theme’s functions.php file. I did this so it would still work if the client changed themes.

    <?php
    
function remove_menus(){
    
if (!current_user_can('administrator') && !is_admin()) {
    
remove_menu_page( 'branding');
    
}
    
}
    
add_action( 'admin_menu', 'remove_menus', 999);   // make sure the priorty is high so it is not overided

    you can remove many admins menus also check the WordPress Codex Documentation

    You can also hide the plugin from the plugin page shown in this Blog Post

    Hope this helps someone :smiley:

    UPDATE

    This works better

    `function remove_menus(){

    $current_user = wp_get_current_user();

    if ($current_user->user_login !=’user_name’:wink: {

    remove_menu_page( ‘branding’:wink:;

    }

    }

    add_action( ‘admin_menu’, ‘remove_menus’, 999);’
