    How to suppress the "Update available" message inside Umbraco 8 backoffice

    In order to suppress the "Update available: Click to download" message in the backoffce, there used to be an app-setting in the web.config named "umbracoVersionCheckPeriod":

    <add key="umbracoVersionCheckPeriod" value="0" />
    

    This does not seem to work anymore in Umbraco 8 and it has also been dropped in the documentation moving from Umbraco 7 to Umbraco 8.

    Is there any new setting replacing the old one?

    Hi Jörg,

    Not sure how to do this however the message is only displayed to admin users so if you are worried about the wrong people seeing this just make sure they are not an admin user.

    Cheers,

    Marc

    The key has been renamed in Umbraco 8, so it's now Umbraco.Core.VersionCheckPeriod.

    You can read more about it here:

    It's controlled by the Umbraco:CMS:Global:VersionCheckPeriod setting:
