UPDATE: Now that I’m using it, I see that the Edit page (the target of the Edit button) doesn’t render properly. The Edit tool bar is mostly cut off. This plugin lets you add an edit button at the top or bottom of any post or page. The button is visible anytime you’re logged into your WP site. You can style the button to be as noticeable or as subtle as you like. Much handier than having to open the posts edit page any time you need to edit.
