Mod Notes Plugin for MyBB
MYBB
PLUGIN
free
Private notes on a member that survive staff changes.
Staff context that outlives the staff: add, read and delete private notes on any member's profile.
• Staff-only, CSRF-protected, never shown to the member.
• The note carries who wrote it and when.
• Stops the "why was this person warned last year?" conversation from disappearing with the moderator who left.
rebuilt as a versioned release from the source deployed on Data-Forums — the 1.x archive was not recoverable, so this is the honest 2.0 line rather than a lost original.

Questions people ask
Does it create database tables?
Yes — df_modnotes. Uninstalling drops them, so nothing is left behind.
Does it edit templates or core files?
No. It runs from hooks, so no core file is modified.
How do I check the file I downloaded?
Every release page prints a SHA-256 checksum. Hash the archive locally and compare — if the two differ, the download is damaged, not the release.
How are updates delivered?
Each version is its own release on this page with a changelog, and the older archive stays available. Install the new one over the old one; your settings and data stay where they are.
