“The button on the contact page is the wrong color.” “Client wants this paragraph shorter.” “The plugin conflict shows up right here.” Stickies lets you say it right where it happens.

Open any page of your site while logged in and click the note button on the left edge. A paper-yellow note appears. Type, drag it to the spot, resize it, and save the text. Moving, resizing and recoloring a saved note stick as soon as you let go. A Hack Repair heart pin shows the note is saved. Everyone on your team with Stickies access sees it in the same place.

Made for the people building and looking after the site. Administrators and editors can use Stickies as soon as it is activated, and you choose which roles can see, add or manage notes. Visitors never see notes, and no Stickies files load for them.

  • Pin notes on any page of the site and on dashboard screens (both on by default)
  • Drag by the top edge or the pin, resize from the corner, and pick a color: these save the moment you let go. Save text with the check button or Ctrl+S (Cmd+S on a Mac)
  • Five colors, chosen from the button at the top right: yellow, blue, green, pink and gray
  • Mention a teammate with @ and they get an email with a link straight to the note
  • Choose who sees each note: the whole team, only the people mentioned, or just you
  • Mark a note resolved when the work is done; it leaves the page with an Undo message and can be reopened from the notes panel or the Stickies list
  • The notes panel lists every note on the page, with a count in the toolbar and the admin bar
  • The Stickies menu in the dashboard lists every note on the site, with filters, search and bulk actions
  • Web addresses in a note become links
  • Works with mouse, touch and keyboard: with a note focused, arrow keys move it and Shift+arrow keys resize it
  • On small screens, notes are listed in the panel instead of being drawn over the page

Privacy

Notes are stored in your own WordPress database and are only shown to logged-in people with Stickies permissions. Notes are fetched after the page loads, so cached pages never contain them. Mention emails use your site’s normal mail setup. Mention suggestions may load images from your configured avatar provider, including Gravatar.

Mention emails

Subjects follow [example.com] [Stickies] You were mentioned in a note. The email names who mentioned you, shows the note, and links to the page with the note highlighted. Each person gets at most one email per note every 10 minutes. You can turn mention emails off in Stickies > Settings.
