## Description

LH Dashboard Notes allow you to insert noes on your wp-admin dashboard for your 
users using the post editor interface. If this plugin is network activated the insertion
and editing of these dashboard notes is centralised on the main site of your multisite
install. Allowing you to set Dashboard notes that are viewed throughout your multisite
network.

## Installation

 1. Upload the `lh-dashboard-notes` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory
 2. Activate or network activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
 3. If the plugin is activated normally a Dash Notes post type will appear on your 
    website, if it is network activated this post type will only appear on the main
    site.

## FAQ

### Does the plugin require a multisite installation?

No it works on both a single install and multisite

### Does this plugin behave differently when networked activated?

Yes when network activated the Dashboard Notes post editor is only available on 
the main site of your multisite install. However the notes created on the main site
will appear on the dashboard of all site in your multisite install.

Works perfectly in Wordpress 6.6.1, and prevents other users from editing or deleting
admin notes. Notes can be edited as HTML with formatting and can insert images. 
The notes can be collapsed which is a huge benefit if we are adding a lot of content
with instructions for clients. Thank you! One thing though: the advertised plugin
preview picture at the top of the page belongs to another plugin, and does not look
like this one at all.

What it says on the tin: this plugin will let you post dashboard notes across all
sites in a multisite network, which is super valuable. I’m running on current WordPress(
5.5.3, as I type this), and it’s fine.

This is still a fantastic plugin and I use it on all sites. Along with Plugin Notes.
Best way to document your WP site.

LH Dashboard Notes is exactly what I was looking for to organize the notes and plans
for my blog. It is so easy to use, and the “Search” makes everything quick to find.…
Thank you very much.

Very easy to use, this plugin now supports shortcodes, at my suggestion. Highly 
recommended.
