Descrição
A lightweight plugin to allows admins to create an admin dashboard widget with frequently accessed links for quick access.
I originally developed this plugin after spending hours creating client/user documentation for every WordPress project. Instead of writing step-by-step navigation documentation, I used this plugin to organise all necessary links on the single widget for non-technical users. As a developer, I also use this script myself to organise frequently accessed links for quick access.
Links format
Each link should be entered in a separate line in the following format
(the fourth parameter, i.e. font awesome icon class is optional)
Link text|Button link|Button text|font-awesome icon class
Examples
Post blog|/wp-admin/post-new.php|Post blog
Post blog|/wp-admin/post-new.php|Post blog|fa fa-cog
Post blog|/wp-admin/post-new.php newtab|Post blog|fa fa-cog`
