Great little plugin. Does what it says it will do.
Would be awesome to see some functionality added, things like an option to put the message in the toolbar with just a number or similar. Maybe even an option to enable/disable on a plugin by plugin basis. Might be possible to port some of WP Hide Plugin Updates and Warnings functionality over.
Great stuff all the same! 🙂

Unwanted notices from other plugins are gone, but unfortunately Dobby creates another new entry.
It would be better to move the Dobby notice in the top admin bar, as it is done by “WP Notification Center”, which unfortunately had been discontinued.
Therefore I’m now using “WP Hide Plugin Updates and Warnings”, but would switch back to Dobby as soon as its notice could be removed from the main dashboard area to somewhere else.

works just as i expected. might be nice to be able to see what has been logged as an admin notice somewhere or set an interval (see notices weekly, etc).

Every time I see Dobby instead of clutter, I briefly smile inside.
House elves are great.

Believe me or not, I wanted to make this plugin but Thorsten made it and he’s done a far more smarter job than what I was thinking. I was thinking of doing a far more complex job, however Thorsten did a smarter job of just hiding and revealing.
5 stars for the fact that it does what its supposed to and I wish I could give one or two more stars for smartness behind it!
