Help Notes/Posts dedicated per role.

== Description ==

This plugin allows you to quickly create a custom post type for user roles.  This allows users, with a specific role, the ability to create and edit their own 'help notes' providing a private set of notes for use.  It can be used for anything else that fits with that role (e.g. creating minutes-of-meetings notes etc...).

To add new roles to the basic wordpress roles (Administrator, Editor, Subscriber ..etc) you will need to use another plugin refer to [Roles_and_Capabilities](http://codex.wordpress.org/Roles_and_Capabilities) and Resources.. Plugins.  You can then use one of these plugins (e.g. [User Role Editor](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/user-role-editor/ "User Role Editor")) to allocate users to multiple roles.

So if you want to quickly give a group a private area to share and post ideas/notes ..
* Create a new role.
* Add users to the role.
* Enable the Help Notes from the settings.

Once the plugin is activated a 'General' default post type is enabled with the same access permissions as for the 'post' type, others can then be enabled by role as required from the settings page.
