Introduction

Installation

  1. Download the Lite or Pro version of this extension. The downloaded file should to be a .zip file. If your browser or operating system offers you a directory as download you need to re-zip it on your own or you need to find a way to get the .zip file. Please consider buying the support package. We will install the plugin for you on your server.
  2. Go to your WordPress Dashboard and log in with an administrator account.
  3. Please deactivate all other versions of the plugin. Especially deactivate the Lite version if you want to install the Pro version. Your already created data will not get lost when you deactivate the plugin!
  4. Please navigate to Plugins -> Add New -> Upload.
  5. Then please upload the before downloaded .zip file of this extension.
  6. When the upload was successful, WordPress will offer your to activate the plugin.
  7. In a final step please navigate to the options page:
    1. Enter your license credentials to get the updates directly via the dashboard.
    2. Study the documentation attentively!

Create and edit items

After you have activated the encyclopedia feature you can find a new menu entry in your dashboard: "Encyclopedia (or something like this, depends on your settings). Now you can click on "Add Entry" to start fill your new knowledge base with contents. The interface is willfully adapted from the original WordPress post and page interface. This way it will be very easy for you to step in.

Taxonomies

Taxonomies for encyclopedia items have the same behavior like the post tags and categories you already know from usual posts. For the encyclopedia you can use categories to classify your items. Tags are necessary if you want to display related items somwhere.

To activate taxonomies you need to go to the options page and scroll down to the "Taxonomies" box. There you can activate and deactivate the categories and tags for the encyclopedia post type. Do not forget to scroll to the button and hit the "Save changes" button.

The management of the taxonomies is as easy as the management of the post categories.

Items in your encyclopedia can be "related" if they have common tags. Two items are more related if they have more common tags.

On the options page you can setup that related items should appear automatically above or below an encyclopedia items content. If you deactivate this option you can display the related items manually through adding the [encyclopedia_related_items] shortcode to the items content. (With the "number" attribute you can set a limit of how many related items should be shown.)

Capabilities

Encyclopedia Pro uses the WordPress embedded user rights system to control the access to items, taxonomies and options. You can change these settings directly on the options page without any external plugin. By default nobody has any right, expect the administrator of your installation - the administrator can see and change the options page. So the first step after activating the plugin should be the capability configuration. Go to your Dashboard -> Settings -> Encyclopedia. Scroll down to the "User rights" options box and open it up with a click on the box title. Then you can set the available capabilities for all existing user groups.

Nothing is more awesome than a plugin which plays well with all the cool WordPress features. You can add all encyclopedia items and taxonomies to your custom menus. Go to your Dashboard -> Appearance -> Menus.

Encyclopedia archives

The encyclopedia archives are the index pages which lists all your items. Every encyclopedia index page will automatically be sorted alphabetically and gets a great letter navigation at the top. The letter navigation will be visible only if there are two or more choices for the user. Encyclopedia Pro generates one index page for every category and for every tag. You can find the URLs to these archives in the edit category/edit tag screen in your dashboard.

Template files

All plugin outputs can be changed via user defined HTML templates. Just create the templates you want to overwrite inside your theme folder (no matter if parent theme or child theme). You can find the default templates in the plugin folder in "templates/". Attention: Do not change any plugin files at any time. You will lose you modifications after an update!
