Knowledge Base documentation & wiki plugin – BasePress Docs

We're using BasePress on iconicwp.com. We chose it because we were able to extend it to cater to our specific needs.

On top of that, the support has been great when required!

Great and Extensible!


I chose this plugin mainly because it allowed multiple products to have their own knowledge base, something that sets this plugin apart from other plugins.It was easy to get going with nice out of the box designs that fitted well.I quickly upgraded to Pro, not that I actually needed the pro features ( nice that they are, the free version does a lot ) but because I want to support the plugin developer as I wanted this plugin to exist for the the long term.Being a plugin developer myself, I haven't need that much support, but when I have asked I have had quality support.Also the code is nicely written, with templates and hooks that make customisation straight forward.


Excellent multi knowledgebase plugin


Cool plugin that rolls together a lot of things you could patch together with other plugins but in an easy-to-use complete package that just works. 


Had an issue, support quickly addressed
