He has built a great plugin that will help you to speed up creating your own custom dashboard page (custom-dashboard.php). You must brush up on your PHP development skills to fork the plugin to suit your specific needs. All in all, I tried Sweet Custom Dashboard and it’s amazing.

We can add or eliminate WordPress dashboard widgets and even change how the dashboard looks entirely (thanks to Remi), Now let’s move on to the next part: eliminating unwanted menu items.
Why? You want to remove some menus to provide Country Email List clients a leaner dashboard and keep them from accessing “restricted” areas. If a client does not know their way around WordPress, they might end up breaking the site if they visit and change options on such pages as Settings or Plugins. Add the following code to your functions.php file:
The above code removes the menu links to Settings, Plugins, Appearance, Users and Tools for all users. You can remove sub menus as well. Here is the example code that removes the Widgets sub menu under Appearance:
In the example above, users will access all sub menus under Appearance except Widgets. You can remove as many menus or sub menus as you wish. Just remember this won’t stop users from accessing these pages directly. I mean, if a user enters, for instance yourdomain.com/wp-admin/options-general.php, they will access your Settings page. Good thing most users won’t bother if the item is not on the menu.
