Descripción
As the name suggests, Knowledge Base will allow you to create a knowledge base / FAQ section on your WordPress blog.
The plugin was born after I tried several free plugins and themes out there and that couldn’t fit my purpose. It’s designed to be very easy to install and use out of the box and I’ll be adding more features into the core and as addons.
Terminology
Articles: The plugin uses a custom post type wz_knowledgebase
with a slug of wzkb
ensuring your data always stays even if you choose to delete this plugin (but why would you?!)
Sections: It also uses a custom taxonomy ( kbcategory
) to automatically draw up the knowledge base. You will need at least one category in order to display the knowledge base. These categories can be added under Knowledge Base > Sections
Tags: Additionally you can use tags ( kbtags
) can also be used for each knowledge base article.
Características principales
- Supports unlimited knowledge bases using different sections with unlimited nested levels
- Estilos incorporados que muestran la base de conocimiento maravilosamente y totalmente adaptable – Utiliza el sistema adaptable de cuadrícula
- Enlaces permanentes personalizables: Los archivos están activos para que la base de conocimientos pueda ser vista automáticamente al activarse en
/knowledgebase/
. Puedes cambiar esto en la página de ajustes. - El shortcode
[knowledgebase]
te permitirá mostrar la base de conocimiento en cualquier página que elijas. - Gutenberg block: You can display the knowledge base using a block. Find it by typing
kb
orknowledge base
orfaq
when adding a new block - Migas de pan: Las plantillas por defecto incluyen migas de pan. Alternativamente, utiliza las funciones o el shortcode para visualizarlo donde desees.
- Widgets: artículos de WZKB, secciones de WZKB y migas de pan de WZKB
- Caché incorporado para acelerar la visualización de tus artículos de la base de conocimiento
Colaborar
If you have an idea, I’d love to hear it. WebberZone Knowledge Base is also available on Github. You can create an issue on the Github page or, better yet, fork the plugin, add a new feature and send me a pull request.

The plugin supports unlimited levels of category hierarchy. However, the recommended setting for creating the knowledge base is to create a top level category with the name of the knowledge base and sub-level categories for each section of this knowledge base. Check out the Category view screenshot as an example.

404 errors on the knowledge base

This is usually because of outdated permalinks. To flush the existing permalinks rules simply visit Settings » Permalinks in your WordPress admin area.

Using your own templates for archives and search

WebberZone Knowledge Base incorpora un conjunto de plantillas personalizadas para mostrar los archivos de los artículos, los archivos de las categorías y los resultados de búsquedas. Puedes anular fácilmente cualquiera de estas plantillas creando tu propia plantilla en la carpeta de tu tema
- Vista del artículo: single-wz_knowledgebase.php
- Articles archive: archive-wz_knowledgebase.php
- Category archive: taxonomy-wzkb_category.php
- Search results: search-wz_knowledgebase.php
-
How do I sort the posts or sections?
-
El plugin no tiene una característica incorporada para ordenar las entradas o secciones. Necesitarás un plugin externo como Intuitive Custom Post Order que te permite fácilmente arrastrar y soltar las entradas, secciones o etiquetas para mostrarlas en un orden personalizado.
