Peter’s Post Notes

How well this listing is tuned to rank in WordPress.org search, on the factors an owner controls. Not popularity, optimization.

Directory rank vs rivals

wp.org popularity rank over time · higher is better · when a rival's line climbs above yours, they've overtaken you

Share of active installs on each version of this plugin · 99% run the current release. Green is the current release; a big slice on older versions is a user base that has stopped updating.

Refined from the date this plugin crossed into its current band.

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.

   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! This topic was modified 2 years, 10 months ago by Dex.

   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.

   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 🙂 Updated: 2020 review – Still so awesome! Thanks Peter 🙂 Thank you so much for creating it, and updating it. This topic was modified 5 years, 7 months ago by Dandydahlia.

   so handy! I have way too many notes when I’m writing content for a new site, or thinking about editing an existing one. This plugin lets me organize them into the edit area of the pages themselves, instead of constantly referencing an external spreadsheet. Thank you! 🙂 This topic was modified 9 years, 7 months ago by ellencarnahan.
