Hi Experts,

I was checking new Kibana version that is 5.0.0 . I was curious to know if I can disable plugin like Dev tools , management . So the idea is not to show these to the user or to restrict him to the dashboard plugin only .

I tried using  
/bin/kibana -- dev\_tools.enabled=false but it did not work for me .

Please suggest how i can achieve this .

Regards  
VG

You can't disable Management at the moment using the same trick, because it is not a separate plugin in Kibana.

Hi VG, you could try checking out [Disable/hide management plugin kibana 5](https://discuss.elastic.co/t/disable-hide-management-plugin-kibana-5/72763/2) for some tips on tracking our progress for building this feature and for some tips on how you could implement it yourself (though this can be risky).

Thanks,  
CJ
