After developing a WordPress website a client might want to manage the site themselves. This plugin gives the developer the option of providing “how to” videos to teach the client how to use a certain aspect of the WordPress install. When an install has become complicated it can be a great time saver to provide the customer with an instructional video that covers the topic.
This plugin does not create videos. It provides a place to show videos from YouTube, Vimeo, and to upload your own video (size matters). When creating a site you can link to existing YouTube how to videos that are relevant to your WordPress install. Videos that are relevent to the particular client you have created the Website for.
The videos can be displayed by category and users who can view the video can also be controlled by their role. Choose who you want to be able to view the videos by adjusting the admin help video settings. The title of the L7 Admin Help Videos page can also be set to customize the clients experience.
Users can:
<ul>
<li>Upload a help video.</li>
<li>Title videos.</li>
<li>Provide descriptions of the videos.</li>
<li>Link to external videos.
 </li>
<li>Watch videos in the backend.</li>
<li>Restrict the viewing of the videos.</li>
</ul>

It’s common practice for digital agencies to build a WordPress site/theme then simply hand it off to the client for day-to-day updating. The developers work hard to strike a balance between replicating the designer’s vision and making the theme easy for the client to use. As the design becomes more complex the developer faces questions: Will the client remember to wrap this in a <code><blockquote></code>? Can we count on the content manager remembering to add <code>class="btn"</code> to that link?
It can be equally frustrating from the client side. You don’t want to deal with learning HTML but you want your content to look just as well formatted as the stuff the agency put in at launch. The agency sent over a formatting/style guide but it never seems to be around when you need it.
WP Client Reference attempts to solve these problems by embedding client documentation directly into WordPress. Now agencies can include style guides, tutorials, FAQs, and more without worrying about content managers on the client side not knowing how to format that complicated call-to-action. It’s also useful for any type of team to keep track of information (with versioning) right within WordPress.
