WPMU has great themes and plugins. Unfortunately, many, if not most, come with a nag notice that admins see about installing their notifications dashboard plugin. If you’ve bought one plugin for your site this is probably overkill. If you’re a developer you don’t need this on your client’s sites.
This is a simple plugin that removes the notice. The 1.3 version has been checked against WP 4.4 and recent WPMU plugins, but still should be backwards compatible with older versions of WPMU plugins.
Note: If you do decide to you install the WPMU notifications plugin, please deactivate this one first. Errors may occur if you don’t.

1.1 Removed the nag from the multi-site request to install the dashboard. The WPMU Dashboard is a great product, but you may have reasons to not use it and not be bothered by the screen.
We don’t talk about this version as it didn’t ever work right.
