## Beschrijving

This is a very simple plugin to remove invalid navigation menu items in one click.
When we move pages to the trash but they still display in the menu. This is so boring
deleting all the invalid menu items one by one and time consuming too.

So, I have created this plugin so that WordPress users can easily remove the invalid
menu items. Just install and activate the plugin then go to the menu you want to
edit. You will find a button beside Save menu to remove the items. This is extremely
helpful when you install theme demo content and remove the demo pages.

## Installatie

 1. Upload the plugin files to the `/wp-content/plugins/remove-invalid-menu-items` 
    directory, or install the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ screen in WordPress
 3. Navigate to Appearance > Menus to use the plugin

## FAQ

### How do I use this plugin?

After activation, go to Appearance > Menus. You’ll see a “Delete invalid menu items”
button next to the “Save Menu” button. Click it to remove all invalid menu items.

### What are invalid menu items?

Invalid menu items are menu entries that point to deleted pages, posts, or other
content that no longer exists on your site.

### Is this plugin safe to use?

Yes, the plugin only removes menu items that point to non-existent content. Your
valid menu items remain untouched.

Thank you! I inadvertently installed all page templates on a project. I had dozens
of pages I deleted and then was then unable to remove from the menu. Your plugin
saved the day. (Wordpress 5.5.3 using WPBakery and MoveDo)
