    Hi.

    I’ve noticed recently that you are using WordPress dashboard to display a sales ad. The banner is quite big and annoying. According to the plugins guidelines (https://developer.wordpress.org/plugins/wordpress-org/detailed-plugin-guidelines/#11-plugins-should-not-hijack-the-admin-dashboard):

    Upgrade prompts, notices, alerts, and the like must be limited in scope and used sparingly, be that contextually or only on the plugin’s setting page. Site wide notices or embedded dashboard widgets must be dismissible or self-dismiss when resolved. Error messages and alerts must include information on how to resolve the situation, and remove themselves when completed.

    The WP dashboard is not the place to display these sorts of advertisements, please use your plugin settings page for that purpose, if we let every plugin use ads in that manner, WordPress would become impractical.

    Thanks.
