WPSDDC Notices Control

Documentation

The WPSDDC Notices Control WordPress Plugin is designed for managing selected WordPress administration notices. It helps editors adjust toolbar items and per-user notice visibility. This is useful for reducing distractions in the WordPress dashboard. Important notices should remain visible when needed.

Detailed Behavior

Manage individual admin notice visibility and selected toolbar items with personal and site-wide controls.

Standard admin notices gain Hide for Me, Hide for All (administrators) and Do Not Ask Again controls. Personal choices are isolated by site and account; site-wide choices require manage_options. Error, warning and marked security notices, Core update nags, inline notices, form feedback and notices inside metaboxes remain visible. Restore personal choices from your profile or reset site-wide notice and toolbar choices from the plugin settings. Core navigation, account, update and security toolbar items remain visible, including when older saved preferences request hiding them. Toolbar discovery occurs only on this settings screen and stores bounded stable labels. No notice text is stored: only local fingerprints, up to 300 per list. Changed notice text or language is treated as a new notice. The feature is enabled by default but never hides a notice without an explicit saved choice. No frontend assets, remote requests, telemetry, HQ settings migration or mandatory companion plugin are used.

The plugin uses local WordPress APIs and does not send telemetry. Settings are retained after deactivation or removal.
