Important Terms


Here are explanations of some important terms used in the Easy Docs plugin:

  • Outline: Outlines function as folders, sections, or categories for organizing your documentation. The first-level outlines represent your primary projects, providing a structured hierarchy for your content.

  • Document: A single topic or article within the documentation.

  • Linking Document: Easy Docs allows you to associate a single document with multiple categories simultaneously. The “Link” option displays all existing documents, enabling you to select and link a document to the current location.

  • Unlinking Document: The “Unlink” option removes a document from its current outline location without deleting it. The document remains intact and can be linked to another location as needed.

  • Delete Document: This action unlinks the document from all locations and permanently removes it from the database.

  • Shortcode: A short string of text you can place anywhere on your website to display the documentation for frontend users.
