Description

I have a proposal for Widgets and Menu sections in WordPress Dashboard. At first I have posted this in ideas section of wordpress.org and admin told me to post it here, so here it is.

I think that it would be great if there is an option to delete (remove) menu or widget item without toggling and opening their content. Maybe an X icon at the end. It would be really useful, much faster and easier to manage big menus and widgets.

Here are the screenshots of what i had in mind:

I hope this sounds good :)

All the best!

Thanks for the suggestion. The Menu Customizer feature-plugin (http://wordpress.org/plugins/menu-customizer/), currently targeting core merge in WordPress 4.3, has this feature as part of a dual bulk add/delete mode. Could definitely be useful for widgets as well, although I'm not sure exactly what that UI might look like. It probably wouldn't work very well to have a delete button so easily accessible next to the button to expand the controls.
