    How do I totally remove the dashboard widget?

    In your WordPress dashboard, there is a little pulldown tab in the upper right, below the "Howdy". Pull that down and you will see all the widgets that are on your dashboard. Just uncheck the Gravity Forms box and the dashboard widget will be gone.

    @Chris, I know how to hide it but I want to remove it. I'm using WP multisite and and have people logging into their dashboard and seeing my GF dashboard widget. I want to be able to delete it totally.

    in theme functions.php:
    function example_remove_dashboard_widgets() {
    remove_meta_box( 'rg_forms_dashboard', 'dashboard', 'side' );
    }
    add_action('wp_dashboard_setup', 'example_remove_dashboard_widgets' );

    Thanks for the additional information. You can do this to remove the meta box completely on a single site:

    On multisite though, you might have to make that a plugin and network activate it. Adding to functions.php is not a good solution.
