    Hey happy folks,
    I put WooCommerce on auto-update and next thing I know, I have this SkyVerge module bundled in my install.

    Can someone tell me how to squash it.
    Special cookie for anyone able to tell me how to remove this “marketing” tab I never asked for.

    I understand Woo is getting popular but I want to keep control on the bloatware crawling around (and all the sh*t I never asked for)

    Hey there!

    You’ll want to speak to SkyVerge directly, this is not a WooCommerce core issue. You can contact them via the support form on WooCommerce.com or by contacting them directly from their website.

    To whoever is reading this, apparently the woo membership plugin is developed by this SkyVerge entity, thus their appearance in the latest update of the plugin. They just decided to display their brand with their own icon in the admin WP dashboard for more clutter 🙁

    Mystery solved.

    Hi everyone,
    This is how I got rid of the annoying and unnecessary Skyverge Admin menu from my WP Admin.

    add_action( 'admin_menu', function() {
	remove_menu_page( 'skyverge' );
} );

    This might not be a very elegant solution but I’ve checked the code and I couldn’t find an easy hook provided by Skyverge to disable this thing. Just add it to your functions.php and you should be good to go. 🙂

    Hi @grynge,
    Firstly it was really annoying so I have removed it now I’m in peace. Secondly, if the menu doesn’t exist then no scripts inside that menu pages are running. Unless they added a global JS to grab the admin data and pass it to their server.

    @grynge that was funny !
    Anyway, thanks both of you, that will do 🙂
