Zen Smart Folders

Organize your WordPress Pages & Posts into folders for better management.

<p>Admin Starred Posts lets you mark posts, pages and custom posts within the WordPress admin with stars.<br />
This helps you highlight a post, or mark it so you remember is important.</p>
<p>For example, you might have tons of pages, but are always editing one or two. In that case, star those pages,<br />
and they’ll be easily recognizable in your list of posts.</p>
<p>If you’ve used Gmail before, you’re very familiar with this feature. Similar to that email client, this plugin<br />
let’s you click on a star in your list of posts, pages and custom posts to ‘star’ it.</p>
<p>The plugin works out of the box, but you also get some configuration options to help you customize it to your workflow.</p>
<p><strong>Configuration Options</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Rotate between 12 different “stars”</li>
<li>Drag and set the orders of your stars</li>
<li>Enable/disable this feature for any post type in your WordPress install</li>
<li>Decide whether you want stars to be visible to every one, or in a per user basis.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Other Features</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>You can display only starred posts by using the “Stars” filter available at the top of the posts list.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>This plugin requires WordPress 3.8 or higher</strong></p>


Admin Starred Posts

Nicely does the job of marking like email inbox. Some feature enhancements like adding from post edit page with a note will be great. 

Excellent plugin


This plugin is so useful for managing site wide updates and status of pages especially when working with a group- which are done, which need attention, which haven't been started. I install it on every site I've ever worked on, so I'm probably responsible for at least a hundred of the active installations. Please keep it updated and tested!!


I absolutely love this plugin!

Mark posts, pages and custom posts in your WordPress admin; pretty similar to the stars feature in Gmail.
