LH Dashboard Notes

Description

LH Dashboard Notes allow you to insert noes on your wp-admin dashboard for your users using the post editor interface.

FAQ

Works perfectly in Wordpress 6.6.1, and prevents other users from editing or deleting admin notes. Notes can be edited as HTML with formatting and can insert images. The notes can be collapsed which is a huge benefit if we are adding a lot of content with instructions for clients. Thank you! One thing though: the advertised plugin preview picture at the top of the page belongs to another plugin, and does not look like this one at all.

This is still a fantastic plugin and I use it on all sites. Along with Plugin Notes. Best way to document your WP site.

LH Dashboard Notes is exactly what I was looking for to organize the notes and plans for my blog. It is so easy to use, and the β€œSearch” makes everything quick to find. … Thank you very much.
