# How remove Jetpack ad?

 * So: How do we get rid of the BIG “Get Jetpack now” ad on the top of our dashboard’s
   plugin panel after updating the stats plugin to v 1.8.5?
    **@ Automattic: I don’t
   mean to be impolite, but: If you like people to use your plugins, that’s fine,
   but let them choose. Even an ad like this is fine. But please do provide an “
   OK, thanks, I’ll think about it” button to close the ad, OK? Personally I don’t
   need any of the other plugins provided in the Jetpack, just the stats. For now
   I’ll downgrade to v 1.8.4 (correction: 1.8.1, the latest without ad). Keep up
   your good work! Thanks

 * Go into the “edit” option on the Jetpack plugin.
 * find the text that says
 *     ```
       function admin_connect_notice() {
       		// Don't show the connect notice on the jetpack settings page. @todo: must be a better way?
       		if ( false !== strpos( $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'], 'page=jetpack' ) )
       		return;
       ```
   
 * put the text “return;” just like the below:
 *     ```
       function admin_connect_notice() {
       		// Don't show the connect notice on the jetpack settings page. @todo: must be a better way?
       		return;
       		if ( false !== strpos( $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'], 'page=jetpack' ) )
       		return;
       ```
   
 * Then save the file. Enjoy!
 * Cheers

 * Hi there,
 * There’s an option in the WordPress.com Stats settings page that will dismiss 
   the Jetpack notice entirely. The option is labeled as “Jetpack Notice.”
 * Thanks,

 * Hi guys
    @ Dean: I use the Stats plugin. I don’t need the Jetpack, – at least
   not Jet… :o) @ Tim: Our site is on a selfhosted server (not on wordpress.com).
   No such option there. Anyway, thanks a lot for trying! Kj

 * Hi KJ,
 * There is a settings page for the Stats plugin when you install it (look under
   your Settings menu). In that page, there is an option to disable the message.
 * Thanks,

 * Tim: I was wrong. There IS such an option.
    I just missed because the settings
   page is placed in the Plugins’ menu, not along with all the other settings (in
   the Settings menu). Thanks – ad gone – back on version 1.8.5 Kj
