BuddyPress Docs

I used it on a project for a client several years ago and it worked like a charm. Also, it was well-maintained.

Worked Great

Site operators can create detailed, hierarchical documentation for the site’s authors, editors, and contributors, viewable in the WordPress admin. Powered by Custom Post Types, you get all the power of WordPress to create, edit, and arrange your documentation. Perfect for customized client sites. Never send another “here’s how to use your site” e-mail again!
NEW: You can now pull in help documents from another WP Help install, and they will be automatically updated when the source documents change (even additions and deletions!). Perfect for WordPress multisite installs, or consultants with a large number of client installs.

I was going to write my own plugin, but then I found this one.

It's simple, effective and works well. The sync feature is especially useful in a multisite setup.

Thank you!

Easy and Effective

I create websites for clients. The plugin allows me to transfer documentation along with the site.
Simple and convenient. Thanks to the developer! 

P.S. Continue to develop the product.

Great plug-in. Create documentation in the admin panel.

Not much to say really. Simple. Does the job great. Been working without fail for many years.

Super plugin. Been using for years.


This is one of the best plugins you can find. Does what is says, clean and nice. The sync feature is just elegant, bust also very useful. Good for anyone, and a must have for agents and their clients.


Used for many years


For an agency delivering a lot of websites for users with little or no knowledge of WordPress, this is a gem!I can combine general docs from a central hub, so I only have to maintain it one place, with local docs for the customized functions.It's simple, but I can use most blocks in the help documents.


This is great!
