Thanks, Michael.

The original article is quite old now, and I need to update it.

Thanks for this. One addendum: looks like $current_screen is now set up directly after admin_init, so it’ll work using the admin_head hook.

This is exactly what I needed to know. Thanks!

Sorry to contact you via this method however my e-mail is not available at the moment. I have placed your DCG in two sites. One site works well (usaudio.com) the other (digitraise.net (exact same set up: WP-Genesis-Streamline)) is not working at all as I wish or know it should. If you would be so kind; I would like to ask that you provide me a Rate Quote by phone for your assistance. My #: (352) 281-3196 Jonathan Smith
