this is a great note-taking plugin, it shows everywhere on the back end. could be better if add a minimize button.

This simple-to-use plugin is great! It is a no-frills plugin with color and font options for your notes in the back-end of WP sites. We are GREATLY PLEASED! Thank you so much!

I’m wondering why this plugin still doesn’t have a lot of 5 stars. This is the best plugin you can imagine if you need to add sticky notes in the backend. Wb Sticky Notes has exactly the options you need to add sticky notes in the backend, no one more, no one less. Absolutely perfect. Really thank you for creating this wonderful plugin!
