<a href="https://www.itthinx.com/plugins/documentation/" rel="nofollow ugc">Documentation</a> provides sound structures and tools to maintain a Documentation Management System based on WordPress.
Leveraging WordPress’ framework and internal structures, the system provides a completely new section to manage documents independently from normal posts or pages.
Documents are complemented by their dedicated document categories and document tags, which allows to keep the documentation structures separate from the more blog-oriented posts or CMS-like pages.
It can be used to build a dedicated documentation site, a subsite for documentation in a multisite network or other creative deployments.
See our <a href="https://docs.itthinx.com" rel="nofollow ugc">documentation portal</a> for an example where we use the system to maintain a considerable amount of documentation for our tools.
Simple to use, yet powerful to maintain even thousands of documentation pages.
Documents can be attached to products in WooCommerce using <a href="https://www.itthinx.com/shop/woocommerce-documentation/" rel="nofollow ugc">WooCommerce Documentation</a>.
<h3>Widgets</h3>
The plugin provides several widgets that are used to display document links:
<ul>
<li>Document Hierarchy : facilitates navigating and viewing the document hierarchy</li>
<li>Document Children : displays links to children of documents</li>
<li>Documents : to display sets of document links</li>
<li>Document Categories : to display links to document categories</li>
</ul>
<h3>Shortcodes</h3>
The following shortcodes are available:
<ul>
<li>[documentation_documents] Lists documents, also useful to list documents in a category.</li>
<li>[documentation_categories] Renders a list of links to the document categories.</li>
<li>[documentation_hierarchy] Provides a means to navigate the documentation structure, equivalent to the Document Hierarchy widget.</li>
<li>[documentation_list_children] Lists the children of a document like the Document Children widget.</li>
<li>[documentation_search_form] Renders a dynamic search form. Use <a href="https://wordpress.org/plugins/search-live/" rel="ugc">Search Live</a> for a more flexible search form.</li>
</ul>
