Display custom help or other information in the dashboard.

== Description ==
Have you customized a Wordpress installation or theme for a client and need to add some help to the dashboard?
This plugin allows you to add a widget with text and links to the dashboard. You can display basic help text or include links to other pages or posts within the blog that have more detailed information.

Suggested Use
		Add guidelines for category usage
		Add guidelines for image sizes that fit the theme
		Tell users when they should use pages, posts, or custom write panels

== Configuration ==
Edit function dashboard_custom_text_function() to echo whatever you need to say. You can use HTML to style the content, and add links to other sections of your site.
If you want to change the title of the widget, edit the $title variable in function add_dashboard_custom_text().

== Installation ==
Upload the "custom-dashboard-help" folder to your plug-ins directory and activate it. You may want to use the SCREEN settings in the top right of the dashboard page to adjust the other content that appears on that page. This widget will appear at the bottom of all the others.

== Frequently Asked Questions ==
Does this work with earlier versions of Wordpress? 
Probably, but I haven't tested it. Let me know.

== Screenshots ==
None.

== Upgrade Notice ==
None.

== Changelog ==
v1.0 (5/7/10)
- created and tested. Really, this is more of an example of how to use existing WP functions to add a widget to the dashboard than a new function.
