This plugin add new custom post type ‘FAQ’. With some functionality, you can build help center for your user. 
What is help center? We collect examples at our <a href="https://github.com/hametuha/hamelp/wiki" rel="nofollow ugc">github wiki</a>.
<h4>Creating Portal</h4>
This plugin will provide…
<ul>
<li>Custom post type with single page and archive page.</li>
<li>Custom taxonomy associated to CPT.</li>
<li>Incremental search box.</li>
<li>AI Overview(Since 2.0.0)</li>
</ul>
<h4>AI Overview</h4>
AI Overview answers user questions based on your FAQ content using a large language model. 
It uses the <a href="https://github.com/WordPress/wp-ai-client" rel="nofollow ugc">wp-ai-client</a> bundled with WordPress core since WordPress 7.0, which requires an AI service to be configured in WordPress.
Requirements: AI Overview requires WordPress 7.0 or later. On older WordPress versions, the AI Overview block and template function will still appear in the editor and on the front-end, but the search form will not work (the REST endpoint that powers it is disabled). Other features of this plugin (FAQ custom post type, incremental search, shortcode) continue to work on WordPress 6.6+. Upgrade WordPress to 7.0 to enable AI Overview.
You can configure AI behavior and rate limiting from Settings > Hamelp in the admin panel. The settings page also includes a Rebuild Catalog Now button to manually refresh the FAQ catalog used as LLM context.
Using the Block
Add the AI FAQ Overview block in the block editor. The block has the following options:
<ul>
<li>Placeholder — Input placeholder text.</li>
<li>Button Text — Submit button label.</li>
<li>
Show Sources — Display related FAQ links below the answer.
Using the Template Function
</li>
</ul>
You can also use <code>hamelp_render_ai_overview()</code> in your theme templates:
<pre>
<?php echo hamelp_render_ai_overview(); ?>
</pre>
The function accepts an optional array of arguments:
<pre>
<php
echo hamelp_render_ai_overview( [
 'placeholder' => 'Ask a question...',
 'button_text' => 'Ask AI',
 'show_sources' => true,
] );
?>
</pre>
The function automatically enqueues the required JavaScript and CSS assets.
<h4>Search Box</h4>
The incremental FAQ search box is available in three forms.
Using the Block
Add the FAQ Search Box block in the block editor. The block has the following options:
<ul>
<li>Label — Input placeholder text.</li>
<li>
Button Text — Submit button label.
Using the Shortcode
</li>
</ul>
You can use shortcode <code>hamelp-search</code> in page content.
<pre>
[hamelp-search label='Enter your question here.'][/hamelp-search]
</pre>
Using the Template Function
You can also call <code>hamelp_render_search_box()</code> directly from your theme templates:
<pre>
<?php echo hamelp_render_search_box( [
 'label' => 'Enter your question here.',
 'btn' => 'Search',
] ); ?>
</pre>

This plugin will allow creation of admin help tabs (and associated sidebars) on any screen in the WordPress admin area. It creates a custom post type called Help Tabs to store information. You need to add the following info to make it work:
<ol>
<li>Title – The title of your tab</li>
<li>Main content area </li>
<li>Screen – What page/screen it should appear on</li>
<li>Type – Help tab or tab sidebar</li>
</ol>
HELP TAB EXAMPLE: 
Let’s say I want to add a help tab on the main Help Tabs listing page that says something about my plugin. I would use:
<ol>
<li>“My Main Tab”</li>
<li>“This is a main tab with my own info on it!”</li>
<li>“edit-sbah_helptab”</li>
<li>Select “Tab” (the default)</li>
</ol>
HELP SIDEBAR EXAMPLE: 
Let’s say I want to add a help sidebar (these are the areas to the right with extra info and links) on the main Help Tabs listing page. I would use:
<ol>
<li>“My Sidebar”</li>
<li>“This is a sidebar!”</li>
<li>“edit-sbah_helptab”</li>
<li>Select “Sidebar”</li>
</ol>
IMPORTANT NOTE: While there can be multiple tabs per page, there can be only ONE sidebar per page. If you add others to the same page, only the first one found will show.
NOTE: I also have a plugin that does Admin Pointers (those blue info boxes), if you are interested in that one you can find it here: https://wordpress.org/plugins/better-admin-pointers/
This plugin leverages the great work done by others here:
