FAQ

Does it support HTML notes?

No. Notes are strictly in text format. HTML is automatically stripped from notes when saved.

How do I uninstall?

Deactivate the plugin, delete if desired. Deactivating does not delete existing notes from the database, so if you reactivate the plug-in later all your notes will be restored.

Is there a Pro version?

Yes. Notely Pro has more features.

May I suggest the following improvements? activate comments on all post types by default add comments to the post list view (currently you need a plug-in like Admin Columns to achieve this) add the comments to the quick edit panel in the post list view

Just switched from Post Notes (no longer updated) and very happy. 🙂 I suggest to implement 2 simple feature (from Post Notes): Change the Box Title Ability to put a Notes placeholder for Contributors It also would be useful if there was an “import from Post Notes” feature. Regards.

Notely does one thing and does it well. Lets you add notes in a page’s editor. Displays those notes on the “pages” admin page too, so its easy to keep track of things. I’d give it 5 stars if: a) I could edit notes in quick edit b) it worked for custom post types
