Deteriorating Broken updatesCompatibilityPricing

Older reviewers liked the per-notice control, but the newest ones say the plugin now injects its own ads and recommendation panels into the admin, on top of complaints that hidden notices come back, Elementor notices can't be hidden, and most features sit behind PRO.

    The free version does what it says…i was amazed on easy it was to configure…the feature to remove things individually helps to make sure you don’t nuke notices that are important for your users – love it!

    This plugin adds random ‘recommendation’ notices throughout the admin area of the site along with a panel in the dashboard. Garbage – avoid.

    Is there going to be a fix for the security risk? “The Disable Admin Notices individually plugin for WordPress is vulnerable to Cross-Site Request Forgery in versions up to, and including, 1.3.6. This is due to missing or incorrect nonce validation on a function. This makes it possible for unauthenticated attackers to perform an unauthorized action via a forged request granted they can trick a site administrator into performing an action such as clicking on a link.”

    Have tried using this on multiple sites for many months. It just plain doesn’t work. There is a red “Hide for me” button on notices, but they always come back no matter how many times you hide them. This plugin is useless. This topic was modified 1 year, 3 months ago by KingDingbat.
