Collaborative Post Notes is a simple but powerful internal communication tool for WordPress teams. 
It adds a clean, threaded note system inside the post/page editor, allowing editors, authors, and content teams to communicate directly while working on content — with no external tools (Telegram, WhatsApp, etc.) needed.
This plugin improves your editorial workflow, reduces miscommunication, and keeps all discussions connected to the content they belong to.
<h3>🟦 Why use Collaborative Post Notes?</h3>

<li>Perfect for editorial and content teams </li>

Editorial Workflow Manager adds an editorial checklist to the WordPress block editor (Gutenberg) so your team can follow a consistent pre-publish checklist every time you publish.
It’s built for content teams, agencies, and editors who want a lightweight publishing checklist workflow inside the editor — with clear “ready vs incomplete” feedback — without hard publish blocking.
This plugin does not output anything on the front end.

<li>Create reusable checklist templates (required + optional items).</li>
<li>Assign different editorial checklists to different post types.</li>

<li>See readiness and progress in the sidebar, the post status panel, and the pre-publish panel.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Typical use cases</h3>
<ul>
<li>Blog posts: SEO checks, featured image, categories/tags, internal links, fact check.</li>
<li>News/Editorial: legal review, source confirmation, editor sign-off checklist.</li>
<li>Agencies: client approvals checklist, accessibility checks, brand requirements.</li>
<li>Teams: consistent publishing workflow across authors and editors.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Key features</h3>
<ul>
<li>Checklist templates – manage reusable checklists as a custom post type.</li>
<li>Template editor (row-based UI) – add, remove, reorder items; mark each item Required or Optional.</li>
<li>Required vs Optional items – readiness is based on required items only.</li>

<li>Gutenberg / Block Editor sidebar – “Editorial Checklist” panel inside the editor.</li>
