How to hide download new vesion link in admin?

[Jennym]

Immediately after loging into the admin panel am getting the message

New version of PrestaShop is available! : Download 1.4.7.0 final ! and I want to hide this message forever. Please help.

in /admin/tabs/AdminHome.php, search for "New PrestaShop version available". you will find the code that executes looking for a new version. just comment out that entire section.

 

on v1.4.6.2, it appears on lines 169-181. your version might be different,

Thank you for the prompt attention and reply.. though i was already successful in doing the changes on my own... it was nice hearing from you. Please can you direct me to change the following:

 

admin > modules > now here if I click on plus sign of SEO so it will show the text Google sitemap

v1.8 by

PrestaShop

 

In this I want change the text by Prestashop.

 

Please help.

Hi!

jennyjm sorry for using your post but

Is is possible just to hide the update to a lojistian and show to administrator?

 

thanks

yes, you would have to look at the logged users profile using a simple IF statement condition, and show accordingly.

 

you could review many of the Admin tabs for examples of where this is performed. If you need further assistance, I can provide a paid service to do this for you. Send me a PM if you are interested.

In PS 1.5 edit

admin/themes/yourtheme/css/admin.css

add:

#blockNewVersionCheck{
   display: none;
}

In PS version 1.5.4.1:

/<YOUR ADMIN FOLDER>/themes/default/template/controllers/home/content.tpl

You'll see:

<div id="blockNewVersionCheck">
  {if $upgrade->need_upgrade}
    <div class="warning warn" style="margin-bottom:10px;">
      <h3>{l s='A new version of PrestaShop is available.'} : <a style="text-decoration: underline;" href="{$upgrade->link}" target="_blank">{l s='Download'} {$upgrade->version_name}</a> !</h3>
    </div>
  {/if}
</div>

Delete or comment out the incriminating code. I recommend just commenting out the `.warning` box; that way it still shows up in the HTML source as an occasional reminder for devs.

i think that css solution is much easier and it is provided by haunter 2 posts above.

anyway, both of them will work well  if you will be able to disable also queries to api.prestashop.com it will be wnderful

The issue with disabling it via CSS is that this is an issue of functionality, not styling, so you degrade the separation between content and presentation.
