Description
Memex turns WordPress into a note-taking app. Notes live as a custom post type, so you keep WordPress revisions, search, the media library and permissions — but authoring happens in a dedicated note-taking UI mounted at /memex/, not in wp-admin.
Notes are private by default: the note post type is registered as non-public and every screen of the app requires a logged-in user with the right capability.
Try Memex in WordPress Playground · Try it with demo data
Try it in OpenStation — the same app opened in desktop mode with the OpenStation plugin.
Highlights
- Wiki-style links. Type [[ in the Memex editor to link notes. Matching note titles are suggested inline, and missing targets become stub notes.
- Automatic backlinks. Every note has a backlinks panel showing what links to it
