Can’t hide new layout notice

  • On the admin screen I’m getting “Ultimate WordPress Auction Plugin: Important Message – We have implemented a new layout for the auction list page and auction detail page. The new layout appears by default on both pages. We have given the option to change the layout for auction pages. So, the admin can set the old layout or new layout from the auction settings. Hide Notice“. Clicking “Hide Notice” doesn’t hide it!

    The link underlying “Hide Notice” is <my site>/wp-admin/admin.php?page=ultimate-auction&wdm_uwa_plugin_layout_ignore=0

    I think there are the following problems in the code:

    • wdm_uwa_plugin_layout_notice: nonce that is generated is not included in the link
    • wdm_uwa_plugin_layout_ignore: becuase a link is being used, $_GET should be used rather than $_POST
    • wdm_uwa_plugin_layout_ignore: if the nonce had been included, the wp_verify_nonce arguments are wrong. Think they should be something like: wp_verify_nonce( ? ? ? ? ? ? ? $_GET[‘ua_layout_wp_n_f’], ‘wdm_uwa_plugin_layout_ignore’ )

    Pending a fix I can workaround the problem using this WP CLI:

    wp user meta add <user_id> wdm_uwa_plugin_layout_ignore_notice true

    There are similar issues with the “Get Pro” notice involving functions wdm_uwa_pro_add_plugins_notice and wdm_uwa_pro_ignore.

    WP CLI workaround:

    wp user meta add <user_id> wdm_uwa_pro_ignore_notice true
