About Plugin Notes Plus

This plugin allows you to add, edit, or delete notes about the plugins you have installed on your website. You can use these notes to document why a particular plugin was installed and how it's being used. You can also format the notes using basic HTML tags and choose an icon to quickly convey the type of content in the note.
