## Descripción

**The plugin [Classic Widgets](https://wordpress.org/plugins/classic-widgets/) is
needed (this plugin doesn’t work with Gutenberg).**

**Compatible with PHP 8.2**

**Do you find this plugin helpful? Please consider [leaving a 5-star review](https://wordpress.org/support/view/plugin-reviews/dashboard-notes).**

Dashboard Notes lets you create super simple notes and instructions for your clients
within the WordPress dashboard. Choose the color of the notification, whether or
not to include a logo, and exactly what pages to include the notification on (uses
simple URL matching).

#### Usage

 1. Install the Dashboard Notes.
 2. Go to Appearance > Widgets where you will see a new «Dashboard Notes» sidebar.
 3. To create a note, simply drag a new widget into the sidebar and give it some content(
    we typically use a text/HTML widget).
 4. Once you’ve added content to the widget, click save, and the Dashboard Notes settings
    for this widget will appear.
 5. Adjust the settings to meet your needs, and click save when you’re done.
 6. Refresh, or navigate to any page to see your new note in action.
 7. Use the plugin settings found via **Settings > Dashboard Notes** to choose which
    user roles can/can’t see the notices.

#### Credits

Special thanks to [Kaspars Dambis](https://profiles.wordpress.org/kasparsd/) for
his work on [Widget Context](https://wordpress.org/plugins/widget-context/) – much
of this project is based on that code.

Now I enjoy Dashboard Notes as well! But first I was have to find & fix a bug: the
notes not appeared on specified URL. It seems like the plugins` author still has
not fixed all the URL bugs, so, you can open the /wp-content/plugins/dashboard-notes/
dashboard-notes.php file, find the following function: function check_widget_visibility(
$widget_id ) { and replace the if($this->match_path( $this->get_current_url(), $
vis_settings['url']['urls'] )… with something like if(strpos($this->get_current_url(),
$vis_settings['url']['urls']) !== false)… I have done and enjoy as well! But… sice
the moment, you MUST NOT update the plugin. To remebmer, I usually add «do not update!!!»
after the » * Plugin Name: » at the start of the main plugin` file*. *the current
plugin has one PHP file only, it is the main file. ====================== Плагин
отличный… будет. После того, как вы пофиксите в нём единственный баг. Похоже, автор
плагина забил толстый болтец на доведение своего детища до ума, поэтому – берём 
в свои руки! Фиксим один единственный бажек, и наслаждаемся! Откройте единственный
PHP-файл плагина, найдите код function check_widget_visibility( $widget_id ) { и
замените в нём ниже if($this->match_path( $this->get_current_url(), $vis_settings['
url']['urls'] )… чем-то вроде if(strpos($this->get_current_url(), $vis_settings['
url']['urls']) !== false)… ??? PROFIT

I’ve tried all the dashboard/admin notes plugins but I end up overlooking them because
I don’t pay all that much attention to the dashboard. The one thing I do notice 
anywhere are the notifications which is what this plugin creates. You can color 
code them just like notifications, red, orange, yellow, blue etc. Now I can stack
up my wp dashboard with To Do items. Seems like I used a similar plugin before but
this one renders html whereas the other one didn’t.

It would be really helpful, if on the settings page you would place a hint, how 
to set and change notes, since the widget gets out of sight after a while. Future
users will certainly appreciate that.

I am running 4 different sites all with WP. And trying to know which site I am logged
into easily was becoming tricky. This plugin let me put a banner at the top of the
dashboard with the site logo so I can easily glance and see what site I am in and
working on. Love this!
