remove_action in plugin file

1 Views

Im trying to use 

remove_action( 'admin_notices', 'woothemes_updater_notice' );

In a plugin to keep from editing the themes functions.php file however the code isnt being executed. Do i need to wrap this in something to get it to work from the plugin files?

  1. Make sure you remove the action after the theme has added it. And use the same priority.

    A rather safe way is using the same action you want to clean up:

    add_action( 'admin_notices', 'remove_woothemes_updater_notice', 0 );

function remove_woothemes_updater_notice()
{
    remove_action( 'admin_notices', 'woothemes_updater_notice' );
}

  2. Found the answer just after posting. If anyone is having the same issue i solved it with this.

    // Remove WooCommerce updater plugin notice
function woothemes_updater_notice() {
    remove_action( 'admin_notices', 'woothemes_updater_notice' );}
add_action( 'admin_head', 'woothemes_updater_notice' );
