Karma Docs – Documentation & Knowledge Base

v1.0.0 · by Karma Softudio

Build a beautiful help center: nested articles and categories, a drag & drop builder, instant search, table of contents, feedback and more.

About this plugin

Karma Docs turns WordPress into a fast, modern documentation site and knowledge base. Organise content visually, publish with the block editor and give readers instant answers.

Drag & drop builder

  • Unlimited categories with unlimited nesting.
  • Unlimited nested articles (articles inside articles, at any depth).
  • Drag articles within or between categories at any level. Drag right to nest, left to move out.
  • Reorder and nest categories.
  • Keyboard friendly: move items with the arrow keys and indent/outdent with Tab.
  • Select several items and move them in one go.
  • Inline rename, quick add, duplicate, publish/unpublish and trash from the tree. Undo for every move.

A help center readers love

  • Docs home, knowledge base home, category, article and search results templates.
  • Works with block themes and classic themes. Override any template in your theme.
  • Instant search with highlighted matches and a ⌘K / Ctrl K search palette.
  • Collapsible sidebar navigation and a sticky table of contents with scroll spy.
  • Breadcrumbs, previous/next links, related articles, reading time, last updated and print.
  • “Was this helpful?” voting and a page-cache-safe view counter.
  • Copy buttons on code blocks and click-to-copy heading links.
  • Light/dark mode toggle without a flash on load.
  • Pretty nested URLs (/docs/{knowledge-base}/{parent}/{child}/) and automatic 301 redirects when you move an article.

Content blocks

  • Callout (info, tip, warning, danger, success).
  • FAQ accordion with FAQPage structured data.
  • Tabs, Steps and Code group blocks for technical docs.
  • Docs Home, Docs Search and Knowledge Base blocks, plus matching shortcodes.
  • Elementor widgets for Docs Home, Search and Knowledge Base.

SEO & performance

  • TechArticle, BreadcrumbList and FAQPage JSON-LD.
