They have a habit of fiddling where they should not fiddle. Under many circumstances, granting them limited access is the right thing to do.<\/p>\n<p>But there will always be a chance of them screwing something up, and that is where <a title=\"Easy Admin Notification\" href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.org\/extend\/plugins\/easy-admin-notification\/\" target=\"_blank\">Easy Admin Notification<\/a> may be able to help. As you might expect, this plugin allows you to easily place a customized message within the WordPress backend.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_79043\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\" data-caption=\"true\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-79043\" title=\"Easy Admin Notification\" src=\"https:\/\/wpmudev.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/05\/easy-admin-notification.png\" alt=\"Easy Admin Notification\" width=\"662\" height=\"122\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\">Like this.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The settings give you some control over the message, namely:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Whether it is displayed as an error or notification<\/li>\n<li>Whether the end user has an option to hide the message<\/li>\n<li>Where the message is displayed (either all pages, or dashboard only)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>There are numerous potential application for this plugin &#8211; keeping rogue clients in check is just one of them. What would be nice to see from this plugin is the ability to include messages on particular pages only &#8211; for instance, you could include a pre-publishing checklist on the post screen.<\/p>\n<p>As it is, the plugin offers up functionality that is relatively easy to put in place manually, but it has the potential to offer a lot more. For that reason, I gave it a three star rating in the <a title=\"WordPress Plugins Repository\" href=\"http:\/\/wordpress.org\/extend\/plugins\/\" target=\"_blank\">plugins repository<\/a>.\u00a0It is a brand new release, so here&#8217;s hoping that future updates will extend its functionality.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sometimes all it takes is a simple message to dissuade a rogue client from inadvertently breaking their own site.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":84405,"featured_media":79044,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"blog_reading_time":"","wds_primary_category":0,"wds_primary_tutorials_categories":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[10211],"tutorials_categories":[],"class_list":["post-79042","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-plugins","tag-admin"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/wpmudev.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/79042","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/wpmudev.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/wpmudev.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wpmudev.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/84405"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wpmudev.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=79042"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/wpmudev.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/79042\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wpmudev.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/79044"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/wpmudev.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=79042"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wpmudev.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=79042"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wpmudev.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=79042"},{"taxonomy":"tutorials_categories","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/wpmudev.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tutorials_categories?post=79042"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
