I love the plugin. I have searched far and wide…and posted everywhere to find a plugin that somehow interacts with the dashboard menus. I like the links.
I know a lot of people who would like to see a way to customize those menus or even leave a simple text message for all users to read.
Your plugin definitely has great posibilities. Nice coding job.
Is there a way to modify your plugin to display a message as well as links?
Thank you for this plugin. I have been looking all over for this. I have several blogs and wanted a quick and easy way to go from one blog to another and this works great.
It seems this plugin behaves slightly different than intended on (at least) WP 2.9.1 and 2.9.2; the box / widget / window (I’m unsure about the vocabulary here) with links is shown to both admins and subscribers. A quick
“if ( !current_user_can ( ‘level_10′ ) ) { return; }” at the beginning of jc_dbl_f_DashboardDisplay() will at least empty the box, but it would of course be nicer to have it completely hidden.
Do you intend to ever upgrade / fix this? I’ve never done any WP plugin coding, so I’m unsure if I could get it fixed myself.

Just a note – yes I realize that the word Public is spelled wrong in the second screen shot. =)

Hi!
Install plugin, and can’t understand — as admin i see all dashboard links. But subskriber can’t see any thing. How i can make links for subskriber?
Sergey:
By design this is the way the plug-in is supposed to work; only showing the dashboard links to administrators who are logged in.
Doesn’t work for me. I add a link and it shows on my links widget when not logged in as well as on the dash board when I am logged in

Very nice plugin, thank you!

Rob: Yes and thank you for pointing it out. I’ll release an update within a few days!
Hey works great in 3.0.1!
My only request would be an option to display (or not) the link description under the link itself
Thanks for your work!
