More Information

• This function is a simple wrapper for a call to add_submenu_page() , passing the received arguments and specifying ‘edit.php‘ as the $parent_slug argument. This means the new page will be added as a sub menu to the Posts menu.
• The $capability parameter is used to determine whether or not the page is included in the menu based on the Roles and Capabilities) of the current user.
• The function handling the output of the options page should also verify the user’s capabilities.
• If you’re running into the »You do not have sufficient permissions to access this page.« message in a `wp_die()` screen, then you’ve hooked too early. The hook, you should use is `admin_menu`.
