KeepInMind Dashboard Notes turns your WordPress dashboard into a collaborative workspace. Place notes directly on any admin page Ìtumọ̀ Yorùbá: – anchored to the exact element youÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’re talking about. No more Slack messages saying “that field on the product edit page” Ìtumọ̀ Yorùbá: – just click, write your note, and your team sees it right where it matters.
Why KeepInMind Dashboard Notes?
Every WordPress team has the same problem: communicating about the dashboard itself. Which settings need changing? What does this custom field do? Why is this item configured this way?
KeepInMind Dashboard Notes solves this by letting you pin notes directly to dashboard elements Ìtumọ̀ Yorùbá: – like sticky notes for your admin area, but smarter.
Here are just a few real-world scenarios where it shines:
- You temporarily disable a plugin to test whether itÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’s causing a conflict. Drop a Warning note on the Plugins page so everyone knows it was turned off on purpose Ìtumọ̀ Yorùbá: – and so you remember to check back in three weeks.
- You installed a plugin for one very specific reason that isnÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’t obvious. Pin a note to it explaining why itÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’s there, so another admin Ìtumọ̀ Yorùbá: – or future you Ìtumọ̀ Yorùbá: – doesnÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’t delete it thinking itÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’s unused.
- A client keeps changing a setting that breaks their site. Attach an always-visible Alert banner right next to that toggle: “Do not change Ìtumọ̀ Yorùbá: – this controls the checkout redirect.”
- Your developer configured a custom field with a non-obvious format. Leave a note on the field itself explaining what values are expected, so the content team doesnÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’t have to guess.
- YouÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’re onboarding a new team member. Instead of writing a separate training doc, scatter helpful Attention banners across the pages theyÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’ll use most Ìtumọ̀ Yorùbá: – guidance that shows up exactly where they need it.
- YouÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’re running a staging review before launch. Pin notes to every area that needs a final check, and let your team reply with updates as they work through the list.
Key Features
Pin Notes Anywhere
Click any element on any admin page to leave a note. Your note stays anchored to that exact element Ìtumọ̀ Yorùbá: – a form field, a menu item, a settings toggle, a table row. When your teammate visits the page, they see the note marker right where it belongs.
Rich Text Editing
Format your notes with bold text, links, and text colors. The floating toolbar appears on text selection.
Two Note Types:
- Pinned Note Ìtumọ̀ Yorùbá: – Appears as a marker on the page. Click to open and manage a threaded discussion.
- Open Note Ìtumọ̀ Yorùbá: – Always visible inline. Choose a color to highlight the note based on its importance.
@Mention Teammates
Type @ to mention any allowed user. TheyÌtumọ̀ Yorùbá: ’ll receive an email notification with your note. Autocomplete helps you find the right person fast Ìtumọ̀ Yorùbá: – just keep typing to filter.
Private notes
Mark any note as private so only you can see it. Perfect for personal reminders and work-in-progress notes.
Threaded Replies
Every note supports full threaded replies. Keep conversations organized and contextual without cluttering the page.
Drag & Relocate
Notes can be dragged to a new element if the page layout changes. Grab the drag grip and drop it on the right spot Ìtumọ̀ Yorùbá: – all replies move with it.
Note Scoping
On entity pages (posts, terms, users), choose whether your note applies to this specific item or all items of this type. For example, a note on the “Blue T-Shirt” edit page can be scoped just to that product Ìtumọ̀ Yorùbá: – or to the edit page of all products.
Global Notes
Pin notes to the admin bar or other persistent elements to create site-wide notes visible on every admin page.
Configurable Permissions
Control exactly who can add notes and who can edit or delete:
- Role-based access Ìtumọ̀ Yorùbá: – Choose which roles can use the plugin (Administrator is always included).
- User-level access Ìtumọ̀ Yorùbá: – Whitelist specific users regardless of role.
- Edit/Delete/Relocate policies Ìtumọ̀ Yorùbá: – Author only, role hierarchy (strict or relaxed), or everybody.
