Admin Page Notes

Beschreibung

Have you ever created a page template that just aggregated posts of a custom post type? Pretty cool huh?

Well, your client won’t think it’s that cool 2 months from now when they’re editing their site. They click “edit page” and it’s blank!.

Now you can add notes and links on these pages that will give your clients, authors or other editors, clear directions when editing their site. Check out the screenshots to see it in action.

FAQ

How do move the notes box on the edit screen?

If you hover the cursor over the “Add Page Notes” title, the cursor should change to four arrows. You can then drag it to another location. You might want to use the arrow on the upper right to collapse it to make it easier to move.

How do I save the notes?

You update the post and it will add the notes to the post or page.

There are cases where it is super important to guide editors and authors on how to edit a specific page. This simple plugin is very helpful for these cases. For a future release, I would love to see a rich text input field instead of a plaintext input field plus the possibility to add a color to the note.
