• overview screen for posts, pages, and custom post types
• edit screen for posts, pages and custom post types
• posts with a specific slug or a slug based on a wildcard
• user overview screen and on user profiles
• plugin install/update page

Messages are only shown to the users that you choose

Each message can be limited to be shown only to users with a specific capability or role .

You can for example show one message to your editors, i.e. users with the capability “edit_posts”, and another message to your admins, i.e. users with the capability “manage_options”.

Messages can be selectd to be shown only on the posts you choose

Messages can be limited to only be shown on posts that match a specific slug, or a slug that matches a wildcard.

This way it’s easy to for example show page specific information, letting a user know what a page is for, what they should put in in, and so on.
