proposal/feature request

Hi,

I like the idea, but what are your thoughts on what happens when someone modifies the note?
I’m not sure how this would get implemented..

Let me know ??

Jeroen

Hm. The simple solution would be to once set the author and then keep it fixed.
Author = person who initially added the note.

The Deluxe-version would be to have a kind of history who last edited a note; that’s what WordPress does with post and pages, isn’t it?
Author = last person who modified the note.

For me, the simple solution would be sufficient ??

Hi Christian,

Thanks for your thoughts!

WordPress indeed does something like that, but its disabled in the plugin (performance reasons) and not really integratable in a good way.

My main concern of implementing this in the plugin is that it can cause confusion as per who wrote what in a note. E.g. Trello does this well, but there isn’t enough space to reproduce what Trello does here ??

Another challenge would be who owns the note / can set it to private? That may then also cause unexpected behaviour.

I really like the idea (and have some thoughts on how it would look), but going from the above I don’t think it will be implemented anytime soon ??

Feel free to share your thoughts on that!

Okay, if you want to implement it like that, it really sounds complicated …

My idea was to once set the author name for a whole note (but not a particular sentence or passage within it) and then keep it – unchangeable.

Didn’t think of turning a note into a chat protocol :-))

btw: Thanks for your Plugin; It’s a very useful contribution to WordPress.

I was just thinking,, for a future big update I’ve planned some more user management features (like who can read/write notes). It gets a popover layer with some more space, it may look good to see ‘originally created by X’ there.

What is your use-case that you have this need? Would the above solve that?

Thanks!
Jeroen
