سوالات متداول

Who can add a help section?

Anyone that has the Administrator role, or other roles that you specify.

Can I use the same documentation across multiple sites?

Yes, you can choose to automatically feed documents or import them locally from a remote site with the same plugin.

Can I add support for additional html elements currently not allowed in my main docs?

Yes, you can make a request, or if you know what you’re doing you can use the following PHP hook:

<?php
add_filter( 'helpdocs_allowed_html', 'helpdocs_allowed_html', 10, 3 );
function helpdocs_allowed_html( $tags ) {
    // Add support for <example arg_1="" arg_2="" arg_3=""></example>
    // Add support for <example2 arg_1="" arg_2="" arg_3=""></example2>
    return array_merge( $tags, [
        'example' => [
            'arg_1' => true,
            'arg_2' => true,
            'arg_3' => true,
        ],
        'example2' => [
            'arg_1' => true,
            'arg_2' => true,
            'arg_3' => true,
        ],
    ] );
} // End helpdocs_allowed_html()
?>

An easy to use plugin, that allows me to create and organize documentation for my clients. My clients can now find and organize tasks and instructions, freeing myself from support questions.

Great plugin to create internal admin panel documentation. Perfect for agencies

Since the fantastic Simple Documentation by Mathieu Hays hasn’t been maintained in 2 years, this plugin has stepped in to take up the slack. It’s simple but powerful for adding developer documentation to multiple sites easily. It allows you to add documentation to specific pages (including custom post type pages) as well as maintain a central documentation list for the client. Highly recommended for developers to use.

The best plugin for documentation. Highly recommended if you want to add help boxes on pages for admins that don’t know what they are doing. Also having a dedicated help section with instructions is very useful. Very cool that I get to change the name and colors, too! I am able to eliminate a lot of repetitive questions. I can also use it for notices when I need to alert my team before they make important changes to the site. And there are no premium options that you don’t have access to; it is completely free! Kudos!
