Handy WordPress Dashboard Notepad

Not content with cracking her whip via email, skype and twitter the blogmistress installed Dashboard Notepad too! It’s really handy actually, just a place to jot down to-do lists, ideas on future posts and to be able to leave a message for sarah and I to respond to.

Blogmistress asked me to check it out and if I could see it, and as expected there it was but the problem being I could only view it, assuming she didn’t like me answering back I let her know I could see it and that was it. Well, it turns out the clever little plugin also has more options but not that obvious when you start using it. Just to the top right of the notepad itself click on configure and you get the options on who can edit and who can read the notes – nice and simple and everything you’d need.

There are other notepad plugins, this one allows you to have three pads in your dashboard (I wasn’t going to mention this, don’t want to give her ideas! ) but they all do more or less the same thing.

Very handy to make notes for yourself and also if you have multiple users, I think this is going to be very useful for us.

Thanks to Joe O’Sullivan for this commissioned guest post.
