WooWeekly #243: Default Dashboard Page (Plus: Hiding Jetpack Ads)

How you doing?

I’m well, quite busy and I hope to play some tennis tonight after a few days of rain…

More importantly, it’s Wednesday; our appointment with WooCommerce Weekly is back! Here comes a series of WooCommerce tutorials, tips, reviews and workarounds put together by yours truly so that you can learn something “Woo”. Enjoy 🙂

WooCommerce: Set Default Dashboard Login Page to “Products”

When you log in to the WordPress dashboard and WooCommerce is active, you might want to be redirected to a different page rather than the default “Dashboard” one.
For example, you might want to go directly to the “Products” admin page, or maybe to the “WooCommerce > Orders” page. Or, if you are like me on my development website, you want to go straight to the WordPress editor’s functions.php file. Either way, saving time on login is what we’re chasing here. Pick your default login page, and then use the two snippets below to target actual logins and direct accesses to wp-admin. Enjoy:

WooCommerce: Remove Jetpack Ads @ WP Dashboard

Here’s a quick snippet to disable those (annoying) Jetpack ads and upsells that show in the WordPress dashboard if WooCommerce is active. Thankfully, Jetpack provides us with a filter, and hiding those banners is quite easy. Pity there is no option in the settings (as of now).
Here’s the 1-line PHP snippet for you – add it to your websites and avoid annoying banners for all users. Enjoy:
