How to customize Ultimate Member Profile Menu Dropdown

So what is this profile menu dropdown in Ultimate Member? Well, for this tutorial we will be speaking about that that little cog at the top right of the user’s profile. As seen in the image below

Now, let’t imagine that you’d like to remove the cancel button. To do this, we can use the filter um_myprofile_edit_menu_items and manipulate the items. So, let’s get started!

    return $items;
}
add_filter( 'um_myprofile_edit_menu_items', 'suiteplugins_add_menu_item', 12, 1 );
