About Dash Notifier

This plugin allows developers and system administrators to add a notification banner to their clients' WordPress Dashboard, which can be used for important messages or suggesting useful plugins. You can easily add a new banner by defining a PHP constant and including a message, plugin slug, and plugin name (optional). It's important to note that clients must have this plugin installed for the notification banner to appear.
