Hello Phani,

In order to hide Site Page links to Non-Admin users, you will have to add validation to 'collaboration-navigation.get.html.ftl' available under file path '\{ServerPath}\webapps\share\WEB-INF\classes\alfresco\site-webscripts\org\alfresco\components\navigation'

*******************START CODE*******************
<#if linkPage = "admin-page">
 <#if user.isAdmin>
 <a href="${url.context}/page/site/${activeSite}/${linkPage}" ${linkClass}>${(p.sitePageTitle!p.title)?html}</a>
 </#if>
 <#else>
 <a href="${url.context}/page/site/${activeSite}/${linkPage}" ${linkClass}>${(p.sitePageTitle!p.title)?html}</a>
 </#if>
************************END CODE**********************

Similarly, add another check for your translator page.

Hope my answer is helpful.

Look for the below block of code in 'collaboration-navigation.get.html.ftl'

************************Start Code**********************
<#list pages as p>
<#assign linkPage=p.pageUrl!p.title/>
 <#if linkPage?index_of(pageFamily) != -1>
 <#assign linkClass>class="active-page theme-color-4"</#assign>
 <#else>
 <#assign linkClass>class="theme-color-4"</#assign>
 </#if>
 <a href="${url.context}/page/site/${activeSite}/${linkPage}" ${linkClass}>${(p.sitePageTitle!p.title)?html}</a>
<#if p_has_next>
 
</#if>
</#list>
***********************End Code***************************

And add the relevant check(in my previous post) to the line of code this —-

<a href="${url.context}/page/site/${activeSite}/${linkPage}" ${linkClass}>${(p.sitePageTitle!p.title)?html}</a>

If you're using version 4.2 then the suggested update from Anshu Kumar will not work because the header section of Share has been re-written for 4.2 and the "collaboration-nagigation.get" WebScript is no longer used. Please refer to the following blog posts for information on how to customize the header:
<ul><li>http://blogs.alfresco.com/wp/developer/2013/09/04/customizing-the-share-header-menu-part-1/</li>
<li>http://blogs.alfresco.com/wp/developer/2013/09/06/customizing-the-share-header-menu-part-2/</li>
<li>http://blogs.alfresco.com/wp/developer/2013/09/16/customizing-the-share-header-part-3/</li></ul>

Although these posts deal with the very top part of the header, the sites navigation menu (e.g. "Dashboard", "Document Library", "Members", etc) is also controlled by the same "share-header.get" WebScript so the principle remains the same. You should familiarise yourself with the "share-header.lib.js" library file to understand how the header is constructed and how to display menu items for admins only.
