Hide Admin Notices

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

How often this plugin actually ships. A steady rhythm is the maintenance signal a single "last updated" date can't show.

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 85% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price.

   Does not hide notices and does not add “Show notices” tab. I think it’s abandoned.

   Woocommerce has set an administrator notification on all pages that says that the menu item has been moved to me and I click the button below to complete the process, which does not happen, the notice does not disappear, the setting does not take place. I can’t hide this notification with Hide admin notice… by editing the PHP code… by editing the CSS code… and WordPress doesn’t see the error… so I have to wait 30 seconds after every page load for the empty admin notice to load 😀 Awesome

   So far, the best plugin of its kind. I’ve tried several others that promise a lot, but don’t work quite right (most don’t block ALL notifications). This one does. It’s effective and simple.

   Nowadays, everybody thinks their plugin deserves an admin notice publicity spot. Indeed they do, folks are offering free tools and everybody has to put food on their tables. That said, depending on how many plugins we have installed, we can have 4, 5 or more notices polluting the dashboard making for a terrible user experience. Some of them reach like 400px height. It’s a mess. The solution offered by PontetLabs is so good that I think it should be incorporated into the WordPress core. Very well done, thanks a lot!!
