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>
Managing content in a team often leads to scattered messages across multiple platforms. 
This plugin solves that problem by keeping all notes, replies, and discussions inside WordPress, right inside the editor.
<h3>Key Features</h3>
<ul>
<li>Instant AJAX notes — add notes without saving/updating the post</li>
<li>Threaded (nested) notes — reply inside discussions like a mini comment system</li>
<li>Resolve / unresolve notes — mark discussions as handled</li>
<li>@mentions — mention teammates with autocomplete</li>
<li>Email notifications — mentioned users receive an email with a link to the post</li>
<li>Delete notes — authors can delete their own notes; editors can delete any note</li>
<li>Custom post type support — enable notes on any public post type from Settings</li>
<li>Internal-only — notes never appear on the frontend</li>
<li>Lightweight — uses minimal database space, optimized for speed</li>
<li>Auto-recorded username & timestamp</li>
<li>Block editor compatible — works in the WordPress block editor and WordPress 7</li>
</ul>
<h3>Ideal For:</h3>
<ul>
<li>Editorial teams</li>
<li>Multi-author blogs</li>
<li>News websites</li>
<li>Agencies with content workflows</li>
<li>SEO/content strategy teams</li>
<li>Anyone who collaborates inside WordPress</li>
</ul>
<h3>How It Works</h3>
<ol>
<li>Open any supported post, page, or custom post type</li>
<li>Scroll to the Team Notes metabox</li>
<li>Add a top-level note or reply to existing ones</li>
<li>Mention teammates with <code>@username</code></li>
<li>Resolve notes when done</li>
<li>Notes save instantly via AJAX</li>
</ol>
<h3>Private & Secure</h3>
These notes are not public, not accessible through template files, and never appear on the frontend.

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.
<h3>What you can do</h3>
<ul>
<li>Create reusable checklist templates (required + optional items).</li>
<li>Assign different editorial checklists to different post types.</li>
<li>Track per-post checklist progress in the editor sidebar.</li>
<li>See readiness and progress in the post list table, sidebar, post status panel, and 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>Template duplication – clone checklist templates and customize the copy.</li>
<li>Curated starter templates – includes Blog SEO, News Fact-Check, Accessibility Review, and Client Approval templates.</li>
<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>Helper text + reference links – add plain guidance text and an optional reference URL to each checklist item.</li>
<li>Per-post checklist state – each post/page stores its own checklist progress.</li>
<li>Gutenberg / Block Editor sidebar – “Editorial Checklist” panel inside the editor.</li>
<li>Readiness + progress indicators
<ul>
<li>Sidebar summary with Ready / Incomplete and required progress</li>
<li>wp-admin post list Readiness column for mapped post types</li>
<li>Post Status panel summary while editing</li>

<li>Curated starter templates included on activation and upgrade.</li>
<li>Fresh-install quickstart wizard – choose post types, assign starter templates, and jump straight into the editor.</li>
<li>Lightweight editor tour – auto-open the checklist sidebar once and explain required-item readiness.</li>
<li>Backward compatible upgrades – legacy templates still work and upgrade to UUID-based v2 items when saved.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Getting started</h3>
