Using the plugin

Admin Columns provides an easy-to-use interface that allows you to add, remove, and manage columns for your list table pages for (among others) posts, users, media, comments, and taxonomies.

To access the Admin Columns settings screen, simply navigate to your admin panel ( example.com/wp-admin/ ), and go to Settings » Admin Columns in the admin menu.

This leads you to the Admin Columns settings screen, where you have full control over the columns.

The settings screen is quite self-explanatory, but if you need more information, be sure to
