Disable 'try Gutenberg' banner in wp 4.9.8, if using Ramp about gutenberg-ramp HOT 7 CLOSED

I've thought about it but as of this moment I'm not planning on it. One reason for that is that it doesn't have any specific support for multisite, which I think it should have before putting in the repo:

• let admins specify default behavior network-wide
• and override that default behavior on a site-by-site basis

The following code should remove the banner...

remove_action( 'try_gutenberg_panel', 'wp_try_gutenberg_panel' );

I just released a little plugin that gives site admins/agencies/hosting companies/etc more fine-grained control over who sees the Try Gutenberg callout (more fine-grained that the "shotgun approach" as in the comment above).

In particular, it lets site admins:

• hide the callout for all users (i.e., the "shotgun approach")
• hide the callout for all users that do not have edit_posts capability (see trac 41316#comment:182)
• hide the callouot for specific users that do have edit_posts (i.e., only allow specific "trusted" users to see the callout)
• disable Gutenberg for all users for whom the callout is hidden by the above settings

As it says in the README:

To prove to myself that showing/hiding the callout need not be an all or nothing proposition, I quickly threw together this little plugin.

I'd be happy to work with you to integrate these use-cases into Ramp...once we get 4.9.8 out the door, of course.

The direction that Gutenberg Ramp is aiming at is to eventually allow Gutenberg to be enabled for everyone, so I'm not entirely convinced it's the place for Ramp to disable any notifications at all.

The purpose of Ramp is to allow people to gradually start using Gutenberg. I don't think that removing notifications is going to facilitate that.

I do understand that people might have different workflows and intentions for how the admin UI is supposed to look like for their site. I'm happy that @pbiron made a plugin to control exactly that for people who don't want to write their own conditional to remove the notification through the filter.

We should probably test if the labels make sense though when Gutenberg is enabled through Ramp. Maybe even customize the message to reflect the enabled Ramp settings? For example, what should the message look like if Gutenberg is enabled through Ramp on Posts and Pages but no other post type? cc @maevelander

Completely understand. The reason I commented on this ticket is that @pento suggested I do so.

Thanks for that! I wasn't aware of that discussion going on about the callout. My response wasn't aimed directly at your comment but as a long coming response to the issue as a whole :)

By the way - have you considered submitting the plugin to .org? I think there is still a little time left until the 4.9.8 release?

from gutenberg-ramp.

4.9.8 has been out for a while now and we still haven't removed the notification by default, so I think we can leave it as is and close the issue :)

Thanks everyone for participating.
