## Description

The “Page and Post Description” plugin extends the capabilities of the standard 
Post-List in the Admin Panel.

Posts and Pages do not have Descriptions by default, but sometimes, when a lot of
time passes, it can be difficult to remember what exactly is written in a particular
page. And you have to spend time opening this Post to see its contents. A small 
Description – like a Note, can be of great help in some situations.

It is this new “Description” Field that is added to each Post. And it can be changed
both on the Edit page (in the form of a Widget), and directly in the List of Posts(
Posts and Pages)

The “Description” field (for brevity in the List named “Note” to make the most of
the workspace and at the same time avoid abbreviations) is highlighted on a separate
line for the entire width of the List, because these Descriptions can be long and
detailed. Otherwise, there is no point in them.

This Plugin gives you this opportunity.

#### Futured

 * Fits harmoniously with the usual style of the Post & Page List.
 * Works for Pages and Posts.
 * Does not add a new Column to the List, compressing the standard set of Post Columns
   to inconvenience.
 * The “Description” can be edited on the Edit Pages or directly in the List without
   the need to update.
 * You can separately select on which Lists the plugin “Page and Post Description”
   will work: Pages / Posts.
 * Pro version have extended features:
    - Works for any Castoms Post-Types.
    - Automatic finding of all Castoms Post-Types and their connection.
