Dashboard Notepad

The very simplest of notepads for your Dashboard. The widget settings allow you to choose which roles can edit the notes, and which roles can merely read them. Based on Alex Günsche’s Headache With Pictures.

  1. i really love your dashboard notepad plugin. i wonder if it’s possible to show the dashboard notes on anywhere on the wordpress theme itself. I want to add kind of a meta section where all notes of the notepad are shown on the frontend. ist this possible?

    regards

  2. Sure, Matt, that’s a really easy feature to add. Look for an updated version later today.

  7. gege, it should be already. If not, use the configuration screen and change the second dropdown to ‘Subscribers… can read the notes.’

  8. … oh, once again I’ve read too quickly. You’re right, users would still have to be logged in. Let me see what I can do.

  9. OK, gege, look for version 1.21 in a few minutes. It has an option to allow the public to read the notes.

  13. Thank you for this great and simple plugin. Is there any chance to have several notepads whith the possibility to show selected ones to the public?

  14. Sorry, Spoony, not at the moment. If you’re comfortable editing PHP, you could make a copy of the plugin and replace all instances of “notepad” with some other word, and get multiple copies that way.

  15. Thank you for the quick reply. I will have a look into the .php files. In fact I just like to have one on the Dashboard for internal notes and another for public notes.
