FAQ
How can I add a new note?
A new note can be added in two ways.
- There is a ‘Add note’ button is located in the top admin bar
- Or you can add a new note from within an existing note. When hovering over a note there will show an black bar at the bottom of that note. There is an ‘+’ within that bar where you can add a new note.
Can I change the colors
You could change the colors by overriding the style from another stylesheet. If you need help with this, ask in the support forums.
How can I add my own colors?
Add the following code to your functions.php, you can change the values of course to your own colors.
Required:
add_filter( 'wpdn_colors', 'wpdn_add_purple' );
function wpdn_add_purple( $colors ) {
$colors['purple'] = '#5236A0';
return $colors;
}
Optional:
You can add the following code for extra styling (e.g. light text instead of dark)
add_action( 'admin_head', 'wpdn_add_style' );
function wpdn_add_style() {
?><style>
