FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can visitors see the notes?

No. Notes appear only in the WordPress admin area and only to users who have permission to view them.

Can I create a note only for myself?

Yes. Personal visibility makes the note visible only to the user who created it.

Can I assign a note to another user?

Yes. You can choose an assigned user and, when email notifications are enabled, notify them about that specific note.

Does it require WooCommerce or Elementor?

No. NoteDock works without WooCommerce or Elementor. If supported editable items from those tools exist, it can work with them too.
