FAQ

What is Appsero

weDocs uses Appsero SDK to collect some telemetry data upon user’s confirmation. This helps us to troubleshoot problems faster & make product improvements.

Appsero SDK does not gather any data by default. The SDK only starts gathering basic telemetry data when a user allows it via the admin notice. We collect the data to ensure a great user experience for all our users.

Integrating Appsero SDK DOES NOT IMMEDIATELY start gathering data, without confirmation from users in any case.

Learn more about how Appsero collects and uses this data.

Can Be Much Better

October 14, 2020
It is a very useful plugin, that does what it should do. But one big pitfall in this plugin is that, when you want to add a new page, it asks for the name, and then instantly publishes the page (!!!), which leads to have a public blank page on the site. then you have to go to edit page, and make it draft again, until your content is final and, ready to be published.

This plugin is not compatible with WordPres Coding Standard

July 19, 2020
The archive page structure is different from WordPress standard. No Search result page feature. Customized, but less functionality WordPress Admin module. I am developer user, and I was able to customize these to work with WordPress Coding Standard. However, most users are hard to use this, when taking care of seo and site design.

wedocs + weglot = multilanguage knowledgebase

July 9, 2020
I want to thank Tareq for this great plugin. I compared multiple knowledge plugins with the following requirements: - easy to use - separate document type - compatible with wordpress search - compatible with wordpress language plugin weglot In the end I decided to choose wedocs and I am super happy with it. I managed to create a beautiful looking knowledge base in multiple languages. Thanks again and keep on going. Best regards Christoph
