How to Hide the OneSignal Admin Notice

Introduction

OneSignal may display an admin notice prompting you to enter new API keys to continue sending web push notifications. If you prefer to hide this notice without updating the keys, you can do so by adding a small custom function to your active theme. This guide explains how to hide the OneSignal admin notice in BuddyBoss.

Custom Workaround

1. Go to Appearance > Theme Editor in your WordPress admin dashboard.
   
2. Under Select theme to edit, choose your active theme (preferably a BuddyBoss Child Theme), then click Select.
   
3. From the Theme Files list, click Theme Functions (functions.php).
   
4. Paste the following code just before the closing PHP tag (?>):
   

add_action('admin_head', 'wphelp_hide_notices_wp');
function wphelp_hide_notices_wp() { ?>
    <style>
        .buddypress .wrap div#message,
        .buddypress .wrap div.notice {
            display: none;
        }
    </style>
<?php }

5. Click Update File to save your changes.
   

This code hides the OneSignal admin notice in the BuddyBoss admin dashboard without affecting other functionality.

Note: Modifications are typically considered custom work, but we are making an exception in this case. Please review the BuddyBoss Support Policy.
