Matt's got in a pr to make them show on entries and he has a pr changing the docs to reflect that:

https://github.com/ExpressionEngine/ExpressionEngine-User-Guide/pull/878/files

Note- they aren't parsing for me on private repo, but I'll make a new issue if they should be.

Currently notes fieldtype don't work in channel entries tag.

Matt to decide if we want to remove it form the generator, or make the notes fieldtype able to output in channel:entries.

Need to update docs to match what Matt decides above EITHER way.

So notes don't show on the frontend in the channel entries. Just return nothing.

BUT they do work in the channel form:

So I think for generators:

  • remove from entries, leave them in channel form.
  • Tweak docs to make clear they're available on the channel form.

Prior discussion below:

Remove Usage of notes is not supported in templates.

Or remove notes fieldtype from generator? I'm not sure what is correct
