Peace and quiet in the WP backend: Hide Notifications Plugin

I have used Artificial Intelligence a WP Plugin written, which deactivates annoying messages.

Clean up your WordPress backend: No more annoying admin notifications thanks to the plugin!

You know that feeling? You log into your WordPress backend and are immediately greeted by a flood of notifications: updates here, recommendations there, notifications from plugins and themes everywhere. This can quickly become confusing and distract from what is important.

This simple plugin has only one task: It hides all Turn off admin notifications (notifications) globally in your WordPress backend. This allows you to fully focus on your content again.

The problem: The daily flood of admin notices

WordPress and the countless plugins and themes we use are incredibly helpful. But they also like to communicate frequently through the admin notification bars at the top of the backend. This ranges from important update notices and error messages to promotional messages and requests to purchase a pro version. Over time, this can become a real distraction, making your dashboard look cluttered and cluttered.

The solution: Our simple “Hide Notifications WP” plugin

Our plugin “Hide Notifications WP” follows a radically simple approach: It hides all these notifications. No complicated settings, no options – simply install, activate, and rest easy.

How does the plugin work? (The technology behind it)

For those of you who are technically minded: The plugin is extremely lightweight. It consists of a single PHP file (hide-notifications-wp.php).

1. The hook: The plugin uses the WordPress action hook admin_head. This hook is triggered whenever the -area of an admin page is loaded.
2. The CSS: Our plugin attaches itself to this hook and adds a small piece of CSS code.
3. The hiding: This CSS ensures that all elements typically used for notifications are simply not displayed. Specifically, we set display: none !important; for the following CSS selectors within the main content area (#wpbody-content):
   • .notice (General Notice)
   • .update-nag (Core/Plugin/Theme update prompts)
   • .error (error messages)
   • .updated (success messages)
   • .warning (warnings)

The !important is necessary here to ensure that our rule overrides any other CSS rules that might want to make these elements visible.

installation

Installation is child’s play:

1. Download the plugin file (hide-notifications-wp.php) as a ZIP archive.
2. In your WordPress backend, go to Plugins > Install.
3. Click Upload Plugin.
4. Select the downloaded ZIP file and click Install Now.
5. After installation, click Activate Plugin.
6. Done! The notifications are now gone.

Important note – Please note!

This plugin is a powerful tool for a clean interface, but it also carries risks! all If you hide notifications, you won’t see any important security updates, critical error messages or urgent warnings more.

Therefore, use this plugin wisely:

• It is well suited for experienced users who know how to check for updates and bugs elsewhere.
• It can be temporarily useful for working in a concentrated manner.
• Deactivate the plugin regularlyto make sure you don't miss any critical information!

We strongly recommend that you regularly check your website manually for updates (core, themes, plugins) and potential issues if you permanently activate this plugin.

Conclusion

The "Hide Notifications WP" plugin is an extremely simple solution for anyone who is bothered by the flood of admin notifications in the WordPress backend. With just one line of code inserted via a hook, it ensures a clean and distraction-free work environment.

But always remember the important note: Do not permanently hide information that could be crucial to the security and stability of your website.
