<p>Some times adding a note to users is needed for other moderators to be familiar with events for future references.</p>
<p>You may wish to let your fellow moderators know why a user is flagged, or perhaps to let another moderator know that this users has prior permissions to post content that may land in a grey area and have various responses to.</p>
<p>After activation, a <code>Toggle user notes</code> link will be available to moderators under the author information on every post, this will expand the existing notes for a user, and provide a field for adding new notes.</p>
<p>When a note is added, all moderators can see the note, who added it and when. The timestamp link also provides a link to the post the note was added from to give an indication of why the note is there.</p>


User Notes for bbPress

I've reviewed this plugin in my BuddyPress User Blog, I think it works great but should be enhanced to add an indication that the user has a note against them and also there is a need to be able to delete the note, recording the data of the note would also be useful.

Works Great!

Let moderators apply notes to individual users on your bbPress forums.

<p><strong>Restrict User Access is a fast and simple Membership Plugin for WordPress. Restrict your content in minutes, NOT hours.</strong></p>
<p>Quickly set up a paid membership site where your users can get different levels such as Platinum, Gold, or Free. Then, grant those levels when a user purchases a product in WooCommerce.</p>
<h3>👥 Unlimited Access Levels</h3>
<p>Users can have multiple levels, and you control how long memberships should last. When unauthorized users try to access restricted content, you can redirect them to another URL or display a teaser.</p>
<h3>⚡ Level Membership Automations</h3>
<p>Automatically add levels to your users based on something they do (Triggers) or something they are (Traits):</p>
<ul>
<li>User Registration</li>
<li>User Roles</li>
<li>Logged-in or Guests</li>
<li>WooCommerce Purchases</li>
<li>Easy Digital Downloads Purchases</li>
<li>BuddyPress Member Types</li>
<li>GiveWP Donations</li>
</ul>
<h3>🔒 Contextual Content Protection</h3>
<p>Prevent unauthorized users from visiting your posts, pages, or categories. You can even combine the conditions: protect all posts tagged “Premium” written by a select author.</p>
<p>The following Access Conditions are available out of the box:</p>
<ul>
<li>Posts, Pages & Custom Post Types</li>
<li>Content with Tags, Categories, or Custom Taxonomies</li>

<li>Pods Pages</li>
</ul>
<p>Note that Access Conditions do not apply to content displayed in lists.</p>
<h3>✅ Grant & Deny Capabilities</h3>
<p>The easy-to-use WordPress User Manager gives you full control over the capabilities the members should or shouldn’t have. Access Level Capabilities will override the permissions set by roles or other plugins.</p>

<li>Easy Digital Downloads</li>
<li>Pods</li>

[/restrict]

[restrict level="!platinum"]
This content can only be seen by users without Platinum level or above.

</code></pre>
<h4>Example – Check if current user has an active level membership</h4>
<pre><code>if(rua_get_user()->has_level($level_id)) {
    //show restricted content
} else {
    //show content if unauthorized
}
</code></pre>
