Removing Slider Revolution
< 1 min read
Tired of the Slider Revolution box showing up in your admin sidebar? Yeah, me too! Even if you disable it from the Screen Options in your admin area, it will usually come back. I saved a function I found years ago, and it still seems to work.
You’ll need to add this to your functions.php file for your theme.
/**
* Remove Rev Slider Metabox
*/
if ( is_admin() ) {
function remove_revolution_slider_meta_boxes() {
remove_meta_box( ‘mymetabox_revslider_0’, ‘page’, ‘normal’ );
remove_meta_box( ‘mymetabox_revslider_0’, ‘post’, ‘normal’ );
remove_meta_box( ‘mymetabox_revslider_0’, ‘YOUR_CUSTOM_POST_TYPE’, ‘normal’ );
}
add_action( ‘do_meta_boxes’, ‘remove_revolution_slider_meta_boxes’ );
}
This doesn’t work. Will updated with a solution.
I suggest using a child theme and adding it to your functions.php. Only add it to your main theme if you know what you’re doing.
