    A very annoying message appearing in the admin backend won’t go away. No way to close it or hide it. Even clicking the “offer” button doesn’t make it go away. It says:

    Black Friday Sale1 week left

    Our biggest sale of the year: up to 50% OFF on Revive Social. Don’t miss this limited-time offer.

    I don’t mind the occasional ad. But this is a takeover of my backend. Aren’t there rules about this? Unremovable banners? What if every plugin maker did this? There’d be no room to write, and it would just be ads everywhere! Having to add special CSS code to hide it should not be necessary!

    Not only that, but for my experience at least, it blocks the confirmation above posts that confirms that your post has been updated when you update something. You submit a change to your post and the are above that confirms this is completely replaced by this ad that is literally EVERYWHERE.

    Exactly, it’s a big security risk.

    I also posted a complaint (see first post above) and got nothing but crickets. I found a workaround, but you still can’t see that area after making the CSS changes. You still can’t see Confirmation of posts or Updates.

    Using a file manager, go to …/wp-content/plugins/tweet-old-post/assets/css/ and open the file inside that directory called rop.css. Near the top, add the following code:

    div.themeisle-sale-container {
    display: none !important;
    }

    .notice.themeisle-sale {
    display: none !important;
    }

    Someone might have a better fix. You’ll need to empty your caches for the changes to show up. Admin messages confirming updates and posts still won’t show up, but at least you don’t have to look at that stupid ad. Until they fix this, I’m stumped. ROP is completely unresponsive. Aren’t there WordPress rules against this sort of backend takeover? It’s literally hiding important information!

    It’s better not modify plugin’s files. You can disable this notice with a simple function in your functions.php or a code snippets plugin:

    /**
    * Hide Themeisle sale banners in admin
    */
    function ayudawp_hide_themeisle_sale() {
    echo '<style>.themeisle-sale { display: none; }</style>';
    }
    add_action( 'admin_head', 'ayudawp_hide_themeisle_sale' );

    Works fine. I have it applied in all my sites

    Hi,

    Thank you for helping us figuring this out. While the notice is gone now, as the Black Friday period has come to an end, the development team made this a priority for any future updates containing notifications to be dismissable when used outside the ROP dashboard.

    Thank you again for your help and apologies for the disruption.
