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.
