  • Easy and good performance

    Great plugin. Easy to use and good performance. Thanks!

  • No changes

    It didn't make any changes besides hiding the comments for the admin menu. I selected which plugins/menu items I wanted to hide but it didn't hide anything besides the comments. Tried hiding the top-bar and same thing. I chose "Only me" and didn't make a difference. I wonder what's wrong?
