                                    5. Configure update control settings (recommended: \"Allow Only Minor Updates\")<\/li>\n

                                      Will this hide critical security notices?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

                                      By default, critical security notices are preserved. However, version 1.0.6 adds a \"Hide All Notices\" option that can hide even security notices (use with caution!).<\/p><\/dd>\n

                                      Can I control plugin and theme auto-updates individually?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

                                      Yes, version 1.0.6 adds individual controls for plugin and theme auto-updates.<\/p><\/dd>\n

                                      What does \"Allow Only Minor Updates\" do?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

                                      This option allows WordPress to automatically install security patches and minor version updates (like 6.5.1 to 6.5.2) while preventing major version updates (like 6.5 to 6.6) that might break your site.<\/p><\/dd>\n

                                      Is it safe to disable all core updates?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

                                      Disabling all core updates is not recommended<\/strong> for production sites as it leaves your site vulnerable to security threats. This option should only be used on development or staging sites.<\/p><\/dd>\n

                                      Can I use both \"Disable All Core Updates\" and \"Allow Only Minor Updates\"?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

                                      No, these options are mutually exclusive. You can only choose one update control method at a time. The plugin includes validation to prevent selecting both.<\/p><\/dd>\n

                                      Does this plugin work with WordPress Multisite?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

                                      Yes, SK Notice Hider works with both single site and multisite installations. On multisite, settings can be configured network-wide.<\/p><\/dd>\n

                                      Will this plugin slow down my website?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

                                      No, the plugin is optimized for performance. It only loads necessary code on admin pages and uses efficient methods for hiding notices.<\/p><\/dd>\n

                                      Is this plugin compatible with other notification plugins?<\/h3><\/dt>\n

                                      Yes, SK Notice Hider is designed to work alongside other plugins. It uses specific CSS selectors to avoid conflicts with other notification systems.<\/p><\/dd>\n\n<\/dl>\n\n\n

                                      1.0.6<\/h4>\n\n
