Whether you need a simple FAQ page, a full self-service help center, or a structured multi-product wiki, Knowledge Base scales to fit. Organize articles into products and sections, customize permalinks, and let your customers help themselves: no coding required. Perfect for: * Multi-product companies managing multiple help centers * SaaS platforms with self-service documentation portals * Ecommerce support centers reducing ticket volume * Documentation hubs and internal company wikis * Developers building customer-facing knowledge portals [Live Demo](https://webberzone.com/support/knowledgebase/). ### Powerful features available in the Free version * **Unlimited Knowledge Bases**: Support as many products as you like, with unlimited sections and sub-sections. * **Beautiful, Responsive Layouts**: Ships with clean templates powered by the Responsive Grid System. * **Customisable Permalinks**: View your KB at /knowledgebase/ by default or change the base slugs for articles, sections, products, and tags. Advanced custom permalink structures with dynamic placeholders are available in Pro. * **Shortcodes + Gutenberg Blocks**: Add KB listings anywhere using [knowledgebase] or use the Knowledge Base block. * **Built-in Breadcrumbs**: Improve UX and SEO with breadcrumb navigation. * **Widgets Included**: WZKB Articles, WZKB Sections, WZKB Products, and WZKB Breadcrumbs widgets. * **Built-in Caching**: Speed up your Knowledge Base without extra plugins. Configurable cache expiry settings are available in Pro. * **Multilingual Ready**: Full WPML and Polylang compatibility — translate articles, sections, products, and tags; language-aware caching and widgets included out of the box. * **Auto Table of Contents**: Automatically generate a linked Table of Contents from article headings, with configurable depth and minimum heading threshold. * **Live Search Suggestions**: Show accessible AJAX search suggestions as visitors type in the Knowledge Base search form. * **Related Articles**: Display related articles at the bottom of KB articles based on categories and tags. * **Alerts**: Add attention-grabbing alert boxes with the [kbalert] shortcode or Alerts block. * **Settings Export & Import**: Back up and restore all plugin settings as a JSON file. Sensitive values (API keys, webhook secrets) are automatically stripped on export and never overwritten on import. ### Pro features [Knowledge Base Pro](https://webberzone.com/plugins/knowledgebase/#pro) enhances the plugin with advanced features for larger documentation sites, including ratings and feedback, a help widget, a powerful custom permalinks engine, premium layouts, enhanced TOC surfaces, and additional admin tools. * **Article Rating & Feedback System**: Collect binary or 5-star feedback with optional follow-up questions, admin alerts, Bayesian sorting, and GDPR-friendly tracking modes. * **Help Widget**: Offer an in-app support hub with live search, suggested articles, and a contact form inside a floating assistant. * **Custom Permalinks Engine**: Craft advanced URL structures for articles, sections, tags, and products using dynamic placeholders. * **Knowledge Base Homepage Mode**: Display the Knowledge Base on your site homepage. The Knowledge Base URL becomes the homepage and the Knowledge Base archive URL redirects to the homepage. * **Premium Layout Pack**: Unlock seven additional frontend styles (Modern, Minimal, Boxed, Gradient, Compact, Magazine, Professional). * **Enhanced Table of Contents**: Three Pro TOC delivery surfaces — a sidebar widget that renders the TOC for the current article, a Gutenberg block to insert the TOC inline, and a floating/sticky panel that follows the reader down the page. * **Advanced Admin Tools**: Control knowledge base caching with expiry settings, on-demand cache clearing, and other productivity enhancements. * **Documentation Layout Mode**: Transform any KB page into a three-column docs site with a sticky section-tree sidebar on the left, article content in the center, and an “On this page” TOC rail on the right. Collapsible accordion navigation adapts to the current product, section, or article automatically. * **Section Tree Block & Widget**: Display a context-aware hierarchical navigation tree of your KB products, sections, and articles anywhere — as a Gutenberg block or a classic sidebar widget. The tree collapses and expands sections with an accessible accordion, and highlights the current page automatically. * **GitHub Integration**: Sync markdown documentation from a GitHub repo. Push changes via webhooks and articles are created or updated automatically. YAML frontmatter controls slug, title, products, and sections. * **Article Export & Import**: Export all Knowledge Base articles as a Markdown ZIP (with YAML frontmatter), a SQL INSERT dump, or an XLSX metadata spreadsheet. Re-import Markdown ZIPs to restore or migrate articles, with automatic taxonomy mapping and overwrite/skip control. ### Key Concepts * **Articles:** Custom post type `wz_knowledgebase`: your FAQs, how-to guides, and documentation. * **Products:** Custom taxonomy `wzkb_product`: link articles to one or more products. * **Sections:** Custom taxonomy `wzkb_category`: organize content neatly into categories. * **Tags:** Optional `wzkb_tag` taxonomy: make finding content even easier. ### Contribute If you have an idea, I’d love to hear it.

Navigate to “Plugins” within your WordPress Admin Area 2. Click “Add new” and in the search box enter “Knowledgebase” or “Knowledge Base” 3. Find the plugin in the list (usually the first result) and click “Install Now” 4. Activate or Network activate the Plugin in WP-Admin under the Plugins screen ### Manual install 1. Download the plugin 2. Extract the contents of knowledgebase.zip to wp-content/plugins/ folder. You should get a folder called knowledgebase. 3. Activate or Network activate the Plugin in WP-Admin under the Plugins screen ### Quick Start When you Activate the plugin for the first time, you will be taken to the Setup Wizard. Follow the instructions to set up your knowledge base. After the Setup Wizard, you can: 1. Go to **Knowledge Base » Products**: add your first Products if you’ve selected Multi-Product mode. 2. Go to **Knowledge Base » Sections**: add your first categories. 3. Go to **Knowledge Base » Add New**— create articles and assign them to sections. **Want a multi-product Knowledge Base only with Sections?** 1. Set the _First section level_ under the Output tab to 2 2. Create a set of top-level sections for each product 3. Create sub-sections for each of the products See a live example: [WebberZone Knowledge Base Demo](https://webberzone.com/support/knowledgebase/). ## FAQ If you don’t see your question answered below, please post it on the [WordPress.org support forum](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/knowledgebase). This is the quickest way to get help, as I check the forums daily. For more personalized assistance, I also offer [premium _paid_ support via email](https://webberzone.com/support/). ### Why are Knowledge Base pages giving 404 errors? Flush permalinks! Go to **Settings > Permalinks** and just click **Save Changes**. ### What shortcodes are available? Check the full shortcode guide here: [Knowledge Base Shortcodes](https://webberzone.com/support/knowledgebase/knowledge-base-shortcodes/). ### Can I override templates? Absolutely! Copy these files into your theme or `wp-content/knowledgebase/templates/`: * `single-wz_knowledgebase.php` * `archive-wz_knowledgebase.php` * `taxonomy-wzkb_category.php` * `wzkb-search.php` Or .html versions if you are using a block theme. ### How do I change the article or section order? Use a plugin like [Intuitive Custom Post Order](https://wordpress.org/plugins/intuitive-custom-post-order/) to easily drag and drop posts, sections or tags to display them in a custom order. ### Can I use this as a help center or wiki? Yes! Knowledge Base works equally well as a help center, wiki, FAQ site, or documentation portal. Use sections to organize topics and products to separate different areas of your documentation. ### Does it support multiple products or projects? Yes. Enable Multi-Product mode via the Setup Wizard to organize articles under separate Products, each with their own sections and sub-sections. ### Is it compatible with page builders like Elementor or Divi? Yes. You can use the [knowledgebase] shortcode in any page builder. The plugin also provides Gutenberg blocks for block-based themes. ### Can visitors search the knowledge base? Yes. The plugin includes a built-in search form (via the [wzkb_search] shortcode and a Search block for Gutenberg) with optional live AJAX suggestions. You can enable or disable live search from the plugin settings. The Pro version also adds a floating Help Widget with live search and suggested articles. ### Is it compatible with WPML or Polylang? Yes. Knowledge Base has built-in support for both WPML and Polylang: * **Articles, sections, products, and tags** are all translatable. WPML uses `wpml- config.xml` (bundled with the plugin) for automatic configuration. Polylang auto- detects the public post type and taxonomies. * **Widgets** (Articles, Sections, Products) translate stored term IDs to the current language automatically, so you can save a term ID in the default language and the widget will display the correct translation. * **Archive URLs** resolve to the language-aware URL via `get_post_type_archive_link()`, which both WPML and Polylang filter automatically. * **Caching** is language-aware — cached output is keyed per language so visitors never see content from the wrong locale. **Known limitations:** * The Pro Custom Permalinks feature builds URL structures using `home_url()`. With WPML you may need to set the _Language URL format_ to _Directory_ (e.g. `/en/`,`/ fr/`) for custom permalink structures to resolve correctly per language. * The built-in search form posts to `home_url( '/' )` — this is the standard WordPress search pattern and is handled correctly by both plugins’ URL routing. ### How can I report security bugs? You can report security bugs through the Patchstack Vulnerability Disclosure Program. The Patchstack team help validate, triage and handle any security vulnerabilities.
