<h3>Web Glossary</h3>
Empower your clients with a comprehensive understanding of their WordPress website. The WDS Site Documentation plugin now includes a brand new Web Glossary featuring approximately 70 essential website terms.
This user-friendly glossary equips your clients with the following:
<ul>
<li>An easy-to-comprehend definition</li>
<li>Real-world examples</li>
<li>An explanation of why the term is important</li>
<li>And what the term is commonly confused with</li>
</ul>
Help your clients unravel any vagueness surrounding website management. Each glossary term boasts its own dedicated page, providing in-depth breakdowns to solidify their knowledge. No more mistaking one term for another. The new WDS Site Documentation Web Glossary clarifies any potential ambiguities.
Suggest a web glossary term by emailing <a href="mailto:support@pluginize.com" rel="nofollow ugc">support@pluginize.com</a>. Suggested web glossary terms must include definitions.
<h3>Filters for developers</h3>
The URLs for the movie and PDF files can be modified with the <code>wds_documentation_video_url</code> and <code>wds_documentation_pdf_url</code> filters respectively. For example:
<pre><code>add_filter( 'wds_documentation_pdf_url', function( $pdf_url ) {
 return 'https://agency.site/docs/client.pdf';
}, 10, 1 );
</code></pre>
The upload buttons can be turned off with the filter <code>wds_documentation_enable_changes</code>. To turn off the buttons, add this code to your theme’s <code>functions.php</code> file:
<pre><code>add_filter( 'wds_documentation_enable_changes', '__return_false', 10 );
</code></pre>
The banner image can be modified with <code>wds_documentation_banner_url</code>:
<pre><code>add_filter( 'wds_documentation_banner_url', function( $banner_url ) {
 return 'https://agency.site/docs/agency.png';
}, 10, 1 );
</code></pre>
The footer text can be customized with <code>wds_documentation_footer</code>:
<pre><code>add_filter( 'wds_documentation_footer', function( $footer ) {
 return '<a href="mailto:person@agency.site">Contact us!</a>';
}, 10, 1 );
</code></pre>

DocuPress includes a Gutenberg block to display your articles within the new WordPress editor.
Included block options:
<ul>
<li>Article Count</li>
<li>Display style (grid/list)</li>

DocuPress

Simple to use with a nice looking interface that blends in with the standard WordPress dashboard.

It would be nice if, in future, some extra features, specific for documentation, could be added. For example, an automatically generated index based upon content headings.
