Hi Ken,

This is a bit tricky since your friend is running an older version of Event Espresso. We recommend staying up-to-date otherwise your friend may run into some issues which have already been corrected in the current version.

Here is one workaround:

function remove_pu() {
    if(!current_user_can('administrator')) { ?>
        <style>
        #pu_dashboard_message { display:none; }
        </style>
  <?php }
}
add_action('admin_footer', 'remove_pu');

The code above will hide the notice to all users except for administrators. If needed, you can remove the administrator check and it will hide the notice for all users.

It should go into the theme’s functions.php file.


Lorenzo
