I am trying to hide almost every single admin menu from wordpress dashboard for a specific user id who has administrator role. I want to give that user only option to edit a certain custom post type named lessons and other custom post type Events.
I am using LMS wordpress theme from themeforest by designthemes. I am not sure why this theme just don't give access to the WP-admin for other role except administrator, like Editor, Contributor etc. So I decided to give that specific user administrator role so that he can get in to wordpress dashboard. Then my plan is just to hide other admin menu for this user.
I have used the plugin called User role editor pro and other free plugins. but nothing seems to be working with this. Then I tried with the below code. But this code is removing these admin menus from other administrator dashboard as well where I want these menus to be removed for this user id only who's user id is 279 here. Any help is appreciated.
