The Freelance Admin Hider adds a new set on settings under the general settings page in the admin panel
to allow freelancers to control which menu item the client sees
in the admin panel when they log in.

The plugin hides specific pages and redirects the user back to the main
admin page if he tries to visit directly one of the hidden pages.

This way the freelance has full control over themes, plugins, settings and other
critical pages.

The plugin lets only the admin with an ID of 1 view these pages
in a WordPress multisite installation it will be the super admin of the network.
