Usage Instructions
Install and activate like any other plugin. As promised, there are no settings to mess with.
Once activated all properly added WordPress notices will be hidden from the dashboard and they will be replaced with one dismissable notice alerting you if there are any notices.
Important notices like errors and notices that are “improperly” added are not hidden! (There is a plan for these pesky ones…)
The notice can be dismissed; it will automatically show up again after 7 days to make sure you don’t miss any important notices. The number of days can be adjusted with the agu_dashboard_notices_dismiss_notice_days filter. In case you want to dismiss the notice for 30 days, you can add this snippet to your theme’s functions.php file:
add_filter( 'agu_dashboard_notices_dismiss_notice_days', function(){
return 30;
} );
All the hidden notices can be viewed and handled on the Dashboard → Notices page.
A nice bell icon will also be added to the right side of the admin toolbar, with a familiar red bubble showing how many notices are hidden on the current page. Clicking on the “Display notices” will reload the current page and all the notices will be temporarily visible. This can be useful because some notices show up only on specific dashboard pages, and would not show up on the Notices page.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How much does this plugin cost?
A: The current version is absolutely free.
Q: What if there are still notices appearing after I activate the plugin?
A: Dashboard Notices tries its best to hide admin notices that were created by using the `admin_notices` hook according to the official documentation. As a result, notices that are not following those guidelines might still show up. A later version might handle those notices. Feel free to let me know about these in the Issues section of the repository.
Q: What if I experience problems?
A: I’m always interested in your feedback. The Issues section of the repository is the best place to flag any issues. Do note, however, that the degree of support I provide tends to be very limited at the moment.
