Hiding notifications from specific users not working as expected

    I am experiencing an issue with the Admin Notices Manager 1.5.0 plugin on a multisite installation where the notification visibility options do not behave as expected.

    My goal is to hide notifications from all users except for super admins. To achieve this, I use the option labeled “Hide notifications to all users but not these.” However, when I enter the super admin username, the notifications are hidden from the super admin, while all other users still see them. This outcome is the opposite of what I intended.

    I suggest that this option be renamed to “Show notifications to all users but not these” for better clarity.

    Additionally, I have encountered a similar issue with the option “Hide notifications only from these users.” When I enter a specific user in this setting, I expect that user to be unable to see the notifications, while all other users should still see them. Instead, the specified user can see the notifications, and the others cannot.

    Can you confirm this behavior?

    Hi Malimart,

    I’m really sorry to hear about this experience you’ve experienced with our plugin.

    I’ve conducted a series of tests and was indeed able to reproduce some of the behavior you described. Based on this, I’ve opened an internal ticket with our development team. It appears there’s an issue with filtering notifications for users on multisite installations. Rest assured, this will be addressed in the next plugin update.

    While I don’t have a specific release date for the update yet, I encourage you to stay tuned!
