Hall of Shame The Collection Offenders Methodology
⌕

Dismissed.

a database of WordPress admin-notice spam

Every plugin thinks its nag is the important one. We catalog the worst offenders — license beggars, version naggers, telemetry opt-ins, and the ones that hijack every single screen — and pin each to the exact line of code that does it.

How the ranking works: every number here is a property of the plugin's own code — how many distinct callbacks it hooks to admin_notices / all_admin_notices, and how many have no screen gate so they fire on every admin page instead of just the plugin's settings screen. Everywhere ranks the board; Notices is the total it ships. We collect no data about any scanned site. Full methodology →
