Hide SItewide Settings link in 5.5 dashboard

Permalink
My apologies if this has been asked - but in the new version (5.5.1) how does one go about removing the following links on the top of the new dashboard and in the dashboard drop down menu?

News - Learn about your site and concrete5.
System & Settings - Secure and setup your site.

I have "contributor" type users that should have access to the dashboard but I don't want them having access to System & Settings. I already changed advanced permissions to accomplish this - but the links still appear and when they are clicked on, it takes them to the login page (since they don't have permission).

Just curious if there is an elegant solution to this before overriding core files.

Thanks.

I thought this was fixed in 5.5.1 – but if you're seeing it in 5.5.1 I'd try the latest version that's in github. It's definitely fixed there.

It could be fixed and I'm just not going about it the correct way. What is the suggested way to hide those links:

News - Learn about your site and concrete5.
System & Settings - Secure and setup your site.

Is it advanced permissions? Or is there something else that needs to be adjusted in addition to the permissions?

Not sure if you've already tried this, but you should be able to do this with advanced permissions. I use advanced permissions to hide the entire dashboard, but you should be able to hide individual parts of it.

Go to Dashboard - Full Sitemap - Options - Show System Pages - Dashboard - System and Settings - Permissions. There you should be able to assign group/user permissions.
