I needed to do something similar in the past so I hid the icon with CSS. There are two steps to this:</p> <p>1. create an admin stylesheet with the "display:hidden" for the elements you don't want to see<br /> 2. load the stylesheet in the wp-admin</p> <p>Here is the stylesheet I used:<br /> <pre><code>[css] /* hide the update available icon for the forms menu */ li#toplevel_page_gf_edit_forms span.update-plugins { display:none; }</code></pre> <p>I saved that to a file called wp-admin.css in my child theme's directory. Then I load the stylesheet in the admin via functions.php:</p> <pre><code>[php] function load_custom_wp_admin_style() { wp_register_style( &#39;custom_wp_admin_css&#39;, get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . &#39;/wp-admin.css&#39;, false, get_bloginfo(&#39;version&#39;) ); wp_enqueue_style ( &#39;custom_wp_admin_css&#39; ); } add_action( &#39;admin_enqueue_scripts&#39;, &#39;load_custom_wp_admin_style&#39; );</code></pre> <p>Your idea is a good one and we'll leave it open under feature requests. Thank you. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/hook-to-remove-update-available-icon-in-menu#post-72101 Wed, 22 Aug 2012 12:30:30 +0000 roimediaworks 72101@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>In a wordpress network of sites, site-owners/admins aren't able to update plugins. Yet if a Gravity Forms update is available, an icon appears beside their 'Forms' menu item.</p> <p>They think it's a new form submission because the icons are the same - when really it's an update they can't do anything about.</p> <p>This is misleading and confusing - it would be great if there was a hook that could be put into <code>create_menu()</code> for disabling <code>$update_icon</code> via a theme/plugins <code>functions.php</code> </p>
