Please look at the screenshot. On every admin page there is the upgrade notice. I wonder how I can not display this message at all or at least this message can be visible only to Super Admin. This applies too for all the other stackideas extensions; easyblog and easysocial.

Hello,

Hm, I don't really see why you actually want to suppress this eh? This is actually a pretty important notice and to be honest, we actually get "hate mails" from our customers about not displaying outdated notices

The main reason is that our site is administered by a Manager and not Super Admin and we don't want him to see these messages.

Hm, but why would you want to hide this from your manager? His role is to ensure that the site is up to date

I do understand your logic however in our case there are clearly 2 divided roles; SuperAdmin who looks after a system and it is his job too to upgrade to the latest version and Manager that has restricted role to manage a content.

Hi there,

I am sorry for the delay of this reply. Unfortunately, there is no setting to hide the update notice to a certain user groups and this is fall under customization where as stated in our support policy we cannot support any customization.
However, there is some way that you can do:
1. Edit the php in this file:
administrator\components\com_easydiscuss\themes\default\structure\default.php
which is will be overrides whenever you updates.

2. Apply css code to hide this update notice complete to any user groups, but superuser still can now the update status on the back end dashboard
#ed .app-alert.o-alert.o-alert--danger.outdated-version {
display: none !important;
}
