Features

Sometimes staff members want to share notes about a particular user to help with moderation or support duties.

You can add a User Note to any user by using the admin wrench on one of their posts, or from their profile page:

The interface is displayed in a modal and you can add as many notes as you need to, complete with markdown support:

:information_source: Users cannot see these notes, they’re only visible to staff.

If a user has a user note, whenever they post you’ll see a little notes icon. Clicking it will bring up the notes:

A post was split to a new topic: Make User Notes accessible to category moderators

Great plugin! What’s the API parameter/endpoint for adding notes to topics?

Have you seen this topic? Reverse engineer the Discourse API

And btw user notes are tied to a post, not to a topic.
