In WordPress, the “Welcome” panel is a dashboard widget that appears for new users or users who haven’t dismissed it yet. It provides some basic information and links to help users get started with WordPress. If you want to remove the “Welcome” panel from the WordPress dashboard, you can do so using either a plugin or custom code. Option 1: Remove “Welcome” Panel Using a Plugin 1. Install and activate the “Disable Welcome Panel” plugin. You can find this plugin on the WordPress.org plugin repository. 2. Once activated, the “Welcome” panel will no longer be displayed on the WordPress dashboard.
