Version 8.6.0 of the Advanced Sidebar Menu plugin is now available and ready for general use. This version focused on bridging the gap between excluded pages and the categories widget.
Excluded Pages
The excluded pages feature is supported by all public hierarchal post types. When editing a supported post type, you’ll see a meta box which looks similar to this:
For a long time the “Exclude this page from Advanced Sidebar Menus” checkbox worked great for Pages and Navigation widgets.
Due to the flexibility of post types and taxonomies, there are cases where categories, or custom taxonomies will support a hierarchal post type. Going forward, any post of any type with the “Exclude this page from Advanced Sidebar Menus” will also exclude the post from displaying in the Categories widget.
