how to unset admin menu links programmatically?

Question

how to unset admin menu links programmatically ?

I have created a module with this hook in it

function myModuleName_menu_link_alter(&$item)
{   

//  dpm($item['link_path']);
     if($item['link_path']=="/admin/config/people")
    {
     $item=FALSE;
    }
}

the link path

  "/admin/config/people"

is listed with dpm.

how can i remove it from the admin menu?

I have also tried with this hook

  function my module_menu_alter(&$items) {  

       // dpm($items['user/%user/cas']);
        unset($items['user/%user/cas']);
  }

Answer 1

hook_menu_alter is want you are looking for. The usage is exactly the same as your example, just don't forget to clear the caches afterwards.

Cheers!

Answer 2

this is how i have done it

 /**
 * Implements hook_menu_alter.
 */

function people_manage_menu_alter(&$items) {
    $items['admin/people/create']['access callback'] = 'menu_people_access_callback';
   $items['admin/config/people/accounts']['access callback'] = 'menu_people_access_callback';
   $items['admin/config/user-interface']['access callback'] = 'menu_people_access_callback';


}


 function menu_people_access_callback($arg) {

       global $user;

        if(!in_array('administrator', $user->roles)) {  
           return false ;
         }
      else{
         return true;
       }

   }
