I would like to remove the filter at the top that says “Super Admin” for users that are not a “Super Admin”. How do I go about doing this?

  1. This list of filters at the top of admin screens are called Views. You can manage views using the views_{$this->screen->id} filter. Where you’d replace {$this->screen->id} with the name of the screen you’d like to manage.

    In order to filter the Users screen, you can try the following:

    // filter the 'users' views
add_filter( "views_users", "wse57231_filter_user_views");

function wse57231_filter_user_views($views){
  // This assumes the key for the role is 'super_admin'
  // Is the current user not a "super_admin"?

  if( !current_user_can('super_admin')){
    // Remove the super_admin view from the list of views
    unset($views['super_admin']);
  }

  return $views;
}

    Note: Based on the comments, it sounds like Super Admin is a custom role you’ve created. This is partially confusing because Super Admin is also the name of a special role when using WordPress Multisite.
