<h4>Documents</h4>
Add your documentation articles in DevDocs and assign them to one or more Topics so they appear in the right place in the sidebar. Use Order if you want to control which articles appear first.

* Update items grouped as Added, Changed, Fixed, Removed, Deprecated, or Security.

BSF Changelog plugin is used for building multi products changelog website within minute, This plugin provides shortcodes to display changelog versions list and custom designs.

BSF Changelog

Finally a simple Changelogs plugin for Plugin & Theme authors.
I've waited years for this one: it actually works out of the box, within few minutes you can add your changelogs and version history. And it also supports more than one product.

Yes, this sounds so simple and easy - and it actually is (!) - but no one got it right before.

I use it with your Astra theme and this is the perfect combination ;-)

Thanks for creating this plugin and releasing it for free!

It's so awesome!
