How to disable Plugin upgrade notification
Posted on: July 27, 2009 @ 12:44 am -

Whenever there is a plugin upgrade WordPress will display a notification in your plugins admin.

If for any reason you do not want to upgrade and wants to disable the notification, Just change the version number in the plugin’s main php file.

For example, if you do not want to upgrade Video Sidebar Widgets to version 2.1, as this version is only an inclusion of support for Google Videos and you do not need it. Just open video-sidebar-widgets.php using the plugin editor and change the version number to a greater number. The version number can be found on the top of the plugin file.

/*
Plugin Name: Video Sidebar Widgets
Plugin URI: http://denzeldesigns.com/wordpress-plugins/video-sidebar-widgets/
Version: 2.0
Description: A video sidebar widget using WordPress 2.8 Widgets API to display videos such as Vimeo, YouTube, MySpace Videos etc. Requires at least WordPress 2.8.1. Now including Random Video Sidebar Widget to randomly display 1 out of 5 preset video.

Just change Version 2.0 to 4.0 and the notification will disappear.

    Hi Martin, It was a necessary update, and I plan to keep the plugin separated from video sidebar widgets. I was going to stop doing this plugin, because I had combined it's function in video sidebar widgets. But since, vimeo changed to use iframe instead of normal embed codes. I will have to keep this plugin alive and update to use it. Video sidebar widgets will continue using flash embed code. No vimeo update for it.

    Well, I think I can. If I have the time. I didn't know about any new Vimeo embed codes. Because, this plugin is not popular and it has been a long time since the last bug report from user. Will take a look at the code on Vimeo now, and see if I have the ability to integrate into this plugin. Thanks for your interest.

    Hey Denzel, thanks for the great work! We really would like to use the new vimeo embed code so iPad and iPhone owners can view the videos too. Do you plan to update the plugin? Again, thanks for this really nice plugin! Moritz
