Thank you! But it seems that there is a conflict with the WP-Print plugin. Each time I activate Dashboard Notepad, the "Print This Post" link disappears from the "PostHeaderIcons" of all my post. Thanks in advance for any help. Recently installed this excellent plugin. Thank you!

The function dashboard_notes() was declared already in the first plugin causing the error when my second plugin tried to declare the function with the same name. So I changed the name of this function and all places where it was called by a script "find . -type f -print0 | xargs -0 sed -i 's/dashboard_notes/dashboard_notepad2_notes/g'" Now my second instance gets activated :) I found the reason for fatal error.

I just need a second instance of it. I tried to create it by the following steps: 1) copy all files to a directory called dashboard-notepad2 2) replace all 'notepad' with 'notepad2' with a script "find . -type f -print0 | xargs -0 sed -i 's/notepad/notepad2/g'" 3) rename dashboard-notepad.php to dashboard-notepad2.php 4) edit dashboard-notepad2.php third line to be "Plugin Name: Dashboard Notepad2" After this I tried to activate the plugin, but I received an error message "Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error." I just wish the error message to be more informative :) I'll continue fighting on this, but if you have an answer I would like to hear. Hi Stephanie,
Wonderful plugin, thanks. I just need a second instance of it. I tried to create it by the following steps:
1) copy all files to a directory called dashboard-notepad2
2) replace all ‘notepad’ with ‘notepad2′ with a script “find . -type f -print0 | xargs -0 sed -i ’s/notepad/notepad2/g’”
3) rename dashboard-notepad.php to dashboard-notepad2.php
4) edit dashboard-notepad2.php third line to be “Plugin Name: Dashboard Notepad2″

After this I tried to activate the plugin, but I received an error message “Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.” I just wish the error message to be more informative :)

I’ll continue fighting on this, but if you have an answer I would like to hear.

On the website: When I am logged as Admin the field appears unformatted just the way it looks at the admin-dashboard ...so i can directly edit the value(message) on the site -> fabulous. As being loggedOut (or logged as something under admin eg. subcriber) there is no option to edit and the message appears formatted as it should. Absolutely perfect. Again Thank you for the smart plugin!

As the values are stored somewhere, is there a way to display the note somewhere on my theme by a template tag. Hi Stephanie, thank you so much for this nice litte plugin.
