When a new version of WordPress available, a notification will be displayed in WordPress admin area similar to this.

WordPress x.x.x is available! Please update now.

Some people like to see this WordPress update notification, but others don’t.

Adding this code snippet to your theme’s functions.php file, upgrade notification will be removed from WordPress admin dashboard.:

function nwt_hide_update_notice() {
    remove_action( 'admin_notices', 'update_nag', 3 );
}
add_action('admin_menu','nwt_hide_update_notice');

To disable automatic updates in your WordPress site, add this code in to the wp-config.php:

define('WP_AUTO_UPDATE_CORE', false);
