Estimated value

What this plugin might earn a year, and what it might sell for. Modeled from public signals; we don't see anyone's books.

No paid tier is visible, so we don't put a figure on revenue or sale value: that would be guessing. The install base is a real asset to an acquirer, just not one public data lets us price. A small install base leaves thin data to model from.

    This plugin offers a useful way to keep notes on changes etc. Helpful to remember specific changes and why they were made.

    An excellent way to keep track of what each plugin does. I also use to remind me NOT to use plugins that are causing problems

    I’m looking for the capability to add notes to pages and posts and share them with other site users. This plugin has the core functions I’m looking for but lacks one essential feature to make it complete. It would be helpful to display partial note text on a column in the page and post listing table so you have an overview of the pages that have note and some idea what the notes are. I wanted to request this feature and note that the support threads are never answered. It looks like the author has little willingness to support and improve the plugin.

    Thanks for the plugin! Please don’t abandon it. There is simply no other plugin that does the same or at least none that I could find, and beleive me, I searched for quite a while. If you could add the option for it to replicate/copy the notes on all created posts with the same tags it would be extreme. Thanks again!

    It provides a handy place to leave notes. I used to leave notes at the bottom of my draft, but that’s risky because I’ve forgotten and left them in there a few times after publishing. This plugin removes that possibility. Thanks.
