<p>This plugin allows you to refer to a WordPress shortcode within the content of posts and pages without that shortcode being automagically expanded by WordPress. The plugin takes advantage of the fact that the <a href="https://codex.wordpress.org/Shortcode_API" rel="nofollow ugc">WordPress ShortCode API</a> does not support nested shortcodes to allow this plugin’s shortcode to wrap the shortcode being documented.</p>
<blockquote>
<p>The shortcode parser uses a single pass on the post content. This means that if<br />
  the $content parameter of a shortcode handler contains another shortcode, it won’t<br />
  be parsed</p>
</blockquote>
<p>The plugin supports both the self closing <code>[shortcode]</code> and enclosing <code>[shortcode]content[/shortcode]</code> forms and supports a short form name of the shortcode, <code>[wp_scs]</code> as well as the more verbose <code>[wp_shortcode_shield]</code> form. For the sake of brevity, the remainder of this documentation will use the <code>[wp_scs]</code> short form name.</p>
<p>If using the self-closing form of the shortcode, you need to supply the name of the shortcode you are documenting using the <code>code</code> attribute but without using the enclosing <code>[</code> and <code>]</code> characters. This is because when parsing shortcodes, WordPress looks for the first occurrence of the ‘]’ character to terminate the shortcode. As a result of this, usage such as</p>
<pre><code>[wp_scs code="[another-shortcode-name]"]
</code></pre>
<p>… WordPress will use the ‘]’ character inside the <code>code</code> attribute to try and terminate the shortcode name, which is not what is desired. Instead, the plugin automagically adds the terminating ‘[‘ and ‘]’ characters to the plugin’s output, so that usage such as</p>
<pre><code>[wp_scs code="another-shortcode-name"]
</code></pre>
<p>… will display <em>[another-shortcode-name]</em> in your post’s of page’s content.</p>
<p>If you are using the enclosing form of the shortcode, you can either supply the shortcode to be documented with or without enclosing ‘[‘ and ‘]’ characters; if they are omitted, the plugin will add them for you, so that usage such as</p>
<pre><code>[wp_scs][another-shortcode-name][/wp_scs]
</code></pre>
<p>… and</p>
<pre><code>[wp_scs]another-shortcode-name[/wp_scs]
</code></pre>
<p>… will display the same results, namely <em>[another-shortcode-name]</em>.</p>
<p>Finally a note of caution, you cannot mix the enclosing and self closing form of the plugin’s shortcode within the same post or page; this is not a limitation of the plugin, but the way in which WordPress implements the <a href="https://codex.wordpress.org/Shortcode_API" rel="nofollow ugc">ShortCode API</a> …</p>
<blockquote>
<p>The parser does not handle mixing of enclosing and non-enclosing forms of the same<br />
  shortcode as you would want it to. For example, if you have:</p>
<p><code>[myshortcode example='non-enclosing' /] non-enclosed content [myshortcode] enclosed content<br />
  [/myshortcode]</code></p>
<p>Instead of being treated as two shortcodes separated by the text ” non-enclosed content “,<br />
  the parser treats this as a single shortcode enclosing ” non-enclosed content [myshortcode]<br />
  enclosed content”.</p>
</blockquote>

BetterDocs –  Knowledge Base Documentation & FAQ Solution for Elementor & Block Editor

I have tested several plugins to create our TrueRanker knowledge base.

I will definitely choose this plugin. The support seems to me very good too.

Congratulations.

It has everything you need to create a good knowledge base.

Hi, For me, the links to go to the previous and next article under the articles are not according to the order of the menu on the left side of the articles, how can I solve this problem?? 🙏

Problem in Sort!


Great support, very helpful team! 👍



This plugin helped us to create well structured documentation and searchable pages.


Great support

Great plugin!


It is simple to setup and easy to use. 


Great plugin

The plugin looks great on the front-end and the way content is managed is very intuitive. The automatic Table of Contents is a godsend!

Couldn't be happier


I was able to quickly set up 2 knowledge bases for my projects quickly and they look great, with convenient search. The pricing of the premium version is very reasonable. I can only recommend it. 


Solid plugin, good customer service

I posted a support thread last month requesting the FSE compatibility feature, and they have added it.

Thank you, BetterDocs Team ❤️

Thank you for FSE compatibility!


I recently evaluated different documentation plugins and BetterDocs has a great feature set and a quick support. I opened a ticket after an update, and they fixed the bug within the same day and released a hotfix. This is a great support experience.


Great Plugin – Greate Support


It's a very solid knowledgebase plugin, so if that's all you're after, then it's a 5 star. Their Instant Answer component is lacking some very basic things like the ability to collect additional information (ie. a company name). There's also no chat or ticket component which I believe would put this over the top.


Solid, but lacking


Reported a feedback issue, and the BetterDocs team fixed it quickly with a dev update. Tested and confirmed it's working great. Really appreciate the fast and helpful support!


Fast fast and helpful support

A full-featured documentation plugin including AI writing assistance to create knowledge bases, docs, FAQs, wikis, and more with easy drag & drop UI.
