    Hello,

    I would like to know how I can remove the “Untranslated Posts” widget from the dashboard.

    I used unset($wp_meta_boxes[‘dashboard’]); to clean up the dashboard widgets but this widget was left there.

    Thank you!

    You can remove it via options of the Dashboard, custom code is not necessary.

    However is you will remove them for each user, use the hook wp_dashboard_setup and function remove_meta_box to unset this dashboard widget. See the examples of core.

    
     add_action( 'wp_dashboard_setup', 'fb_remove_dashboard_widgets' );
     function fb_remove_dashboard_widgets() {
    
     	remove_meta_box( 'multilingualpress-dashboard-widget', 'dashboard', 'side' );
     	// use 'dashboard-network' as the second parameter to remove widgets from a network dashboard.
     }
