WordPress 3.3 introduced a new welcome panel designed to provide a better experience for new users installing WordPress for the first time. The panel would normally be shown to new owners of sites in a network, but this may not be desirable for all networks. This plugin dismisses the panel for new sites and users.
This plugin applies only to multisite, and must be network activated.
For an automatic installation through WordPress:
- Go to the 'Add New' plugins screen in your WordPress network admin area
- Search for 'Hide Welcome Panel for Multisite'
- Click 'Install Now' and network activate the plugin
For a manual installation via FTP:
- Upload the
hide-welcome-panel-for-multisite
directory to the /wp-content/plugins/
directory
- Activate the plugin through the 'Plugins' screen in your WordPress network admin area
To upload the plugin through WordPress, instead of FTP:
- Upload the downloaded zip file on the 'Add New' plugins screen (see the 'Upload' tab) in your WordPress network admin area and network activate.
