How do I suppress update notification

When I include ACF within the theme files, rather than as a plugin, I still get notification of an update in the WordPress bar.

The problem with this is that having included ACF within the theme rather than as a plugin, when I click the ‘updates’ button, nothing is showing as needing an update.

So, just to recap – little update sign has (1) in it. Update page does not show any available updates.

Is there a way of preventing ACF from adding itself to this updates button when it’s included within a theme?

Using ACF pro btw.

Thanks.

Hi @antanova

I believe you can set the “show_updates” setting to false. This page should give you more idea about it: http://www.advancedcustomfields.com/resources/acfsettings/.

Hope this helps!
