Hiding WooCommerce plugin update notice

[Terry HaleParticipant]

Since Symbiostock requires WooCommerce 2.5.5, just wanted to share a bit of code that will help us remember not to update WooCommerce to the latest version.  This might also help prevent clients from wondering why all plugins on a site aren’t at their current versions.

This will go in your theme/child theme functions.php file:

// remove update notice for WooComerce plugin
function remove_WC_update_notification( $value ) {
    if ( isset( $value ) && is_object( $value ) ) {
        unset( $value->response[ 'woocommerce/woocommerce.php' ] );
    }
    return $value;
}

add_filter( 'site_transient_update_plugins', 'remove_WC_update_notification' );

Hey Terry,

Thanks for that. We were looking to add something along these lines as an option in the settings in the next release. Good stuff!

Cool, I hope someone finds it useful.  Got the idea for looking that up after seeing the option to disable the Woo updater prompt.
