Description

Add sub menu page to the Links menu.

NOTE: If you're running into the »You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.« message in a wp_die() screen, then you've hooked too early. The hook, you should use is admin_menu.

 <?php
add_links_page( $page_title, $menu_title, $capability, $menu_slug, $function);
?>

Return Values

Notes

• This function is a simple wrapper for a call to add_submenu_page(), passing the received arguments and specifying 'link-manager.php' as the $parent_slug argument. This means the new page will be added as a sub menu to the Links menu.
• The $capability parameter is used to determine whether or not the page is included in the menu based on the Roles and Capabilities) of the current user.
• The function handling the output of the options page should also verify the user's capabilities.

Example

Typical usage occurs in a function registered with the 'admin_menu' hook (see Adding Administration Menus):

add_action('admin_menu', 'my_plugin_menu');

function my_plugin_menu() {
	add_links_page('My Plugin Links', 'My Plugin', 'read', 'my-unique-identifier', 'my_plugin_function');
}
