Beckin Post Notes gives editors a fast, private way to attach notes to individual
posts, pages, and custom post types, right where they work. Notes are stored as post meta and only visible to users who can edit the post.
Why it's unique
- Most "notes" plugins add global dashboard notes. This one is contextual, notes live on the post or page itself and appear in the list table.
- Zero clutter: no admin menus, no persistent banners, no database tables.
-
Clean and compliant: sanitized input, nonces, capability checks, no direct SQL.
Features
-
Side metabox labeled automatically (e.g. "Post Note" or "Page Note").
- "Note" column in the list table with a note 📝 icon when a note exists.
- New filter dropdown: quickly show only posts with or without notes.
- Only users who can edit the post can view or edit its note.
- Extendable: use
beckin_postnotes_supported_post_types to enable notes on custom post types.
Extendable Example:
add_filter( 'beckin_postnotes_supported_post_types', fn( $types ) => array_merge( $types, [ 'your_custom_post_type' ] ) );
