Nag message on every admin screen
-
Once activated, this plugin will add an admin notice to every back-end screen asking you to upgrade to their pro version. It is not dismissible.
The developers have confirmed that this is the case too.
Although the guidelines do allow admin notices that “self-dismiss when resolved” (https://developer.wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-org/detailed-plugin-guidelines/#11-plugins-should-not-hijack-the-admin-dashboard), I really don’t feel this is in the spirit of those guidelines. As a result, I’ve uninstalled the plugin – the notice on every screen is over-bearing and unnecessary (imo).
Plugin developers need to get better at treating their users better – including those that use the free offering, as they are potential, future customers. Annoying them in this way isn’t the way to get sales.
