Single-pass UX cleanup of the main WP Notes admin page. Functionality
unchanged; the page is shorter, has one H1, and stops contradicting
itself.
CHANGES
- Single H1 on the page (was five different H1s).
- Welcome/about content collapsed from THREE on-page surfaces (top
dismissible notice + nested toggle + Show/Close button row) to one
single description line linking to the dedicated About page where
the long copy already lives.
- Two duplicate "Toggle Welcome Section" buttons with the SAME label
but different targets — both removed.
- Embedded "What's New v3.0.0" changelog block deleted: it was
hard-coded to v3.0.0 while the plugin reports v3.0.2. The real
history is in CHANGELOG.md.
- "Buy me a coffee" button moved from page header to page footer —
promo shouldn't be the first thing under the page title.
- Invalid HTML cleaned up (li outside ul, p wrapping div/ul) by way
of removing the welcome blob that contained it.
- Dead bulk-action UI removed: per-row checkboxes and "Select all"
header in both wp_notes_display_notes() and wp_notes_list_table()
rendered but nothing acted on the selection. Removed with inline
comments marking the spot for when real bulk-actions land. Edit
form colspan adjusted to match the new column count.
- ~80 lines of inline style+script for the about-box dismissal
removed (localStorage tracking, show/hide handlers, two style
blocks). WordPress's notice notice-info is-dismissible + user-meta
is the right path if a banner needs to return.
- toggleSection() JS helper removed (no toggles remain).
- Small CSS additions to inc/wp-notes-styles.php for the header
banner and footer-support link.
ALSO FIXED
- PHP 8.2 deprecation: ${size}px → {$size}px in the dashboard
list-table render. ${var} interpolation is deprecated since 8.2
and will hard-error in 9.0.
NET DIFF: wp-notes.php -213 lines, total -111 lines across 4 files
(plus a new CHANGELOG entry). Storage model unchanged.
