If you manage multiple WordPress sites, you may find you get lots of calls about site health as this has been put right in front of your site owners eyes.
This is a good thing if it is your own site but no so good if you are getting calls from non technical clients.
So this plugin removes it. Simple and as lightweight as any code snippet can be.
Additionally if you want to hide the Site Health from the tools menu, you can set
RSHFD_REMOVE_SITE_HEALTH_FROM_TOOLS in wp-config.php to true
define('RSHFD_REMOVE_SITE_HEALTH_FROM_TOOLS', true);
It would be better if it also removed the Tools > Site Health function as well.
There is simple code
function escode_remove_site_health_feature() {
remove_submenu_page( 'tools.php', 'site-health.php' );
}
add_action( 'admin_menu', 'escode_remove_site_health_feature' );
Thank you for this handy plugin, it works well!
