Overview
Add notes on the “edit post” and “edit page” screens’ sidebars in WordPress 2.8 and up. When used with Peter’s Collaboration E-mails 1.2 and up, the notes are sent along with the e-mails in the collaboration workflow. There is also a general and private notes system on the dashboard.
Features
On its own, this plugin adds a panel to the sidebar of the add and edit post / page screens so that users can add notes for themselves or others and keep track of these notes. Whenever you save a post, you can type a note to be displayed along with the post in the edit view.
On the dashboard, there’s also a summary of the most recent notes. By default this shows notes by all people on relevant posts / pages. There is also a general and private notes system.

works well, and support html
by Dex·2 years ago
works well, and support html (I mean keeps the html labels), just add a new css if possible.
since assume the note is very long, it will extend the height to show all the note content which is too high.
thanks!

Awesome plugin, really useful! Thanks for creating and maintenance it!
Simple et pratique
by rduvrac·7 years ago
Je regrette juste qu’il n’y ait pas la possibilité de mettre un picto devant la note sur la page des articles “edit.php”
La couleur attirerait l’œil
et encore mieux la possibilité d’en mettre un animé lorsque cela est super important
Par exemple dans mon cas, j’ai une page avec plusieurs ancres et le code pose problème si je l’enregistre en mode “Visuel” alors que l’enregistrement en mode “Texte” marche bien.
Ma note est dans ce cas : Ouvrir le post en ayant choisi l’affichage “Texte” dans le post précédent pour que celui-ci s’ouvre directement dans ce mode. Le mode “Visuel” plantant les ancres.
Excellent. Awesome to use day-to-day or for major site updates

Does exactly what I need. I’ve been using this plugin for years and it’s still just such a great addition to wordpress – especially when you are updating your site (as I’ve done 2+ times since I installed this) to keep track of notes / pages checked and those updated etc.
Thank you to Peter 🙂
