There are so many options to browse through and configure in the typical WordPress admin panel. Add a few plugins and the admin panel can become untidy and difficult to navigate quickly.

Make navigating your WordPress admin panel a breeze by turning it into a drop-down menu using a plugin. Instead of clicking on the main sections and waiting for the admin pages to load, you can simply hover over a page title and all the sub-menu pages appear below.
Admin Drop Down Menus is a plugin that transforms your WordPress admin panel into a drop-down menu, making it easier to quickly navigate the WP admin panel without having to load the main admin panel pages as you go.

This plugin works as soon as it is activated in the plugins page. It is compatible with WordPress versions 2.2 through 2.3.1.

If you are switching from a different WordPress admin menu plugin you may have trouble with this plugin until you completely delete the other plugin files. If you run into trouble when activating this plugin simply delete the main WordPress-admin-panel file. Once you’ve made the necessary changes, such as deleting conflicting admin menu plugins, you can upload the plugin and reactivate it.
