# Hide Plugins on the Plugins Screen (Pro)

This feature requires the Pro version of the PublishPress Capabilities plugin.

There is a feature available in [PublishPress Capabilities Pro](https://publishpress.com/links/capabilities) that allows you to hide specific plugins from the "Plugins" screen. For example, you may not want user in some roles to see a plugin such as "Classic Editor" is installed. This is possible using the "[Admin Features](https://publishpress.com/knowledge-base/admin-features-screen/)" option in the plugin.

- Click the "Hide CSS Element Form" tab.
- Enter a label for this setting.
- in the "Element IDs or Classes" box, enter the path to the plugins PHP file. In this example, it is `classic-editor/classic-editor.php`
