## Description

This plugin is very simple! It removes the menu icon to access the profile page 
for the selected user roles in wordpress admin pannel. It also redirects the locked
user to the admin homepage if it tries to access directly the profile page (as the
menuitem has been removed).

## Installation

Get to the options page and set the user roles for which you want to lock profile
page access.

## FAQ

  License terms

 1. You are free to use Profiless.
 2. Release 1.0 of Profiless is free of use (this doesn’t mean that it will be the 
    case for the entire life of this plugin, you never know what can happen in life).
 3. I won’t assume any responsibility for any problem that could happen as part of 
    the use of this plugin so use it at your own risk.
 4. The plugin has been designed and tested under WordPress 2.7.1. It may work under
    others releases but I haven’t tested so I cannot commit on it.

Simple and works. I used this to stop users from getting access to their profile
and changing their password.

Installed plugin, activated it, went to Settings and selected everyone but Administrator,
saved settings, page reloaded with random items deselected. I tested with a user
login in a separate browser and the plugin settings failed to hide the Profile menu.
I don’t want to have to keep resetting user passwords once I’ve created accounts.
