Simplify Beaver Builder for Clients
Agencies often struggle with Beaver Builder because of overwhelming page builder options. Here is how to fix it.
The Problem with Beaver Builder for Clients
While Beaver Builder is a powerful tool, it often presents too many options to the end-user. Clients logging in to manage their site are often overwhelmed by the sheer number of menu items and settings. This leads to:
- Confusion about where to go to perform simple tasks.
- "I broke the site" support tickets.
- A perception that WordPress is "clunky" or "hard to use".
The Manual Way (Hard)
You could try to use custom code in `functions.php` to hide these menus based on user roles. This requires maintaining code snippets, updating them when the plugin changes, and risking breaking the backend if you make a syntax error.
The Client Calm Way (Easy)
Beaver Builder has 'Settings,' 'Tools,' and 'Templates' menus that clients absolutely should not touch. Hide these from Editors while keeping the page builder itself accessible for content updates.
With Client Calm, you just:
- Install the plugin.
- Go to the Menu Manager.
- Toggle off the Beaver Builder menus you want to hide.
It's that simple. No code, no maintenance.
