# iubenda Cookie Solution plugin: Moving the dashboard menu item under “Settings”

The hype around the new EU-wide privacy regulation GDPR is huge and service providers with a privacy focus must be raking in that cash. One of those service providers is [iubenda](http://iubenda.refr.cc/5C8R338) (referral link) who not only offer a privacy policy generator but also a inter-twined cookie banner solution.

This cookie banner can be added to WordPress websites with [an official plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/iubenda-cookie-law-solution/). After installing the plugin website owners have to find out that the plugin clutters the WP dashboard by claiming yet another top-level menu position. This seems pretty unecessary for a plugin which requires settings only to be set once. I asked iubenda’s support to consider moving it to the “Settings” menu or elsewhere but this was declined with reference to “non-savvy WP users” who would have trouble finding the page.

Well, let’s just do it ourselves then – by adding the following code to your own little custom functionality plugin (or, less advised, to the functions.php of your child theme):

And that was that.
