Screen Option Settings in WordPress

Written by tim on October 2, 2013

What are WordPress Screen Options?

In WordPress once you log into your dashboard of your site you will see a dark menu bar at the top of the screen.  Just below this bar on the right hand side you will see a grey tab with the title of “Screen Options” with a small grey drop down arrow.

By clicking the Screen Options Tab you can set check boxes for two types of settings that impact your use of the dashboard.  These two categories of the Screen Options settings are “Show on Screen” and “Screen layout”.

*Please note your Screen Options for the Show on Screen section is based on what modules you have installed and may look slightly different then the example below.

By default certain modules are in the Show on Screen section are unchecked or hidden such as Posts.  In order to enable Posts you simply check the box by the name and it will be shown on your dashboard.

Gecko's team does great work. We had a fairly complex request with a variety of stakeholder interests at play. Their team listened carefully and responded thoughtfully to our needs throughout the process! We were very pleased with the process and thrilled with the final product they provided.

Gecko brings an immense amount of talent and expertise to any project, adding value and saving us time at every step of the process. We've been blown away by their balance of creative capability (across strategy, ideation, design and execution) with impeccable execution, on time and on budget every time. Can't recommend them highly enough.

Gecko Designs had us at the lead phrase on their home page: "If you're tired of flakey freelancers and want to work with a team of professional, reliable experts, you've come to the right place!" We were at that point developing our site that we needed to step up to a professional team with a demonstrated portfolio of blue-chip sites, and the expertise to help bring our crazy ideas to fruition. We're looking forward to The Missoula Underground being a vital part of the Northwestern Montana scene, and the first step was picking up the phone and having a conversation with Gabe. Don't hesitate to hire their team, they are ACES at web design and development. Thanks, Gecko!
