OVERVIEW
The strength of WordPress is in it’s ability to be customized through the use of extensions (plugins and themes).
The WP247 Extension Notification System provides a standard interface for WordPress extension developers to communicate important information about their extension to their extension users.
The Settings page provides you with complete control over which extensions the WP247 Extension Notification System will communicate with and which notices will continue to be displayed.
NOTICES
The WP247 Extension Notification System will display notices until they are dismissed. The extension developer assigns one of three dismissibility types to each notice they send:
- None indicates that the notice is not dismissible. The dismiss button will not appear.
- Temporary indicates that the notice will be temporarily dismissed when you click the dismiss button. Once dismissed, the notice will not appear until the next time the Admin page is refreshed.
- Permanent indicates that the notice will be permanently dismissed when you click the dismiss button. Once dismissed, the notice will not appear again.
Regardless of the dimissibility setting chosen by the extension developer, you can permanently dismiss any notice by clicking the Permanently Dismiss link at the lower right of the notice or by checking the checkbox next to the notice title in the WP247 Extension Notification Client ‘s Settings section.
SETTINGS
Use the Settings page to control how the WP247 Extension Notification System operates on your site.
Site-wide Extension Notifications
Checking the Disable Extension Notifications for the entire site checkbox will stop the WP247 Extension Notification System from checking for new notices and from displaying any notices that have not been dismissed.
New Extensions
As a security measure, by default, new extensions are disabled from using the WP247 Extension Notification System . You may opt-in to allowing new extensions to be enabled to use the WP247 Extension Notification System at the time they are activated by checking the Automatically enable Extension Notifications for new extensions when they are activated checkbox. Otherwise, each individual extension may be enabled or disabled as you choose by unchecking or checking the Disable extension notifications for … checkbox within the individual extension’s settings.
