Description

Dash Broom keeps wp-admin tidy. Hide or toggle core and popular plugin notices with one click, grouped by type with count badges. Preferences are saved per user, so each admin can choose what to sweep away.

What it hides/toggles
– Core: Error, Warning, Success, Info
– Plugin notices: WooCommerce, Elementor, Yoast, Jetpack
– WordPress Welcome Panel
– “Other” (misc. .notice elements we auto-classify)

Highlights
– One-click badges per type (show counts; click to slide open/closed)
Per-user saved settings (no code)
Early CSS prevents “flash” of notices before JS runs
– Respects page layout: only targets notices in the main admin content

Use cases
– Hide admin nags during client demos
– Keep stores (WooCommerce) and builders (Elementor/Yoast/Jetpack) quiet
– Focus on what matters, then reveal notices when needed

Accessibility
– Keyboard-operable toggles and ARIA attributes for the settings panel

Installation

  1. Upload the dash-broom folder to /wp-content/plugins/ or use Plugins Add New Upload.
  2. Activate the plugin.
  3. Click Dash Broom button in top right of WordPress dashboard next to the “Screen Options” & “Help” to open Dash Broom Settings and check the notice types to affect. Click Apply to apply new settings. Click bubble badges to toggle reveal notices that have been hidden.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this permanently remove notices?

No. Dash Broom hides or toggles notice blocks in the admin UI. It doesn’t delete data or prevent plugins from creating notices.

Can I choose which types to affect?

Yes. Open Dash Broom Settings, check the types you want affected, then click Apply. These preferences are saved per user.

Will it break plugin updates or setup notices?

Notices are only hidden visually. You can always reveal them by clicking the relevant badge or unchecking the type in Settings.

Can you support another plugin’s notice style?

Absolutely. Open a support thread and paste one example notice HTML (the <div ...> with classes) and we’ll add a selector.
