I need a documentation in the admin section

Hi Avantart,

Thanks for the feedback! Documentation is largely kept out of the site admin to reduce clutter, particularly when documentation would largely be focussed on widgets / shortcodes / template functions – all of which will, in general, be ‘use once and forget’. Since the documentation wouldn’t be used on a day-to-day basis, I don’t think it justifies adding in the admin or as an extra menu.

However, the plug-in does use help tooltips (e.g. for some widget options) and I’ll continue to add this where I feel they are needed. Otherwise from most event pages you can access the plug-in’s documentation from the ‘Help’ tab at the top-right of the screen.

The Pro version does add a TinyMCE button to allow to more easily add shortcodes to content.

Regarding template tags – there are some many (117 currently documented) that adding them all would be very difficult and bloat the plug-in. (You can see documentation for the these here: codex.wp-event-organiser.com).

I will consider adding a section to the help tab to post/pages, listing available shortcodes and links to the shortcode documentation.

I hope that my explanation is clear!

Stephen,

your explanation is clear, but still I am a little unsatisfied :=)

Sure you do not need these short codes on a daily basis, when the page is ready and online, but when you are developing (and a newbie) more help is very welcome. And as the EditorButton is only integrated in the PRO-Version but the other features (mostly booking) are not relevant for my client, it makes no sense for me to buy the PRO-version unfortunately.

I will try to remember the help-tab on the top and write down those shortcodes which I used already and which are working for me…

Thanks for the good plugin!

Cheers, Connie
