Knowledge management using the WordPress framework

About the Book

NO FUTURE ADDITIONS AND UPDATES FOR THIS BOOK ARE PLANNED. HOWEVER THE CURRENT STATE OF THE BOOK HAS BEEN USED TO SETUP A WEBSITE AND MIGHT BE VERY HELPFUL FOR YOU AS WELL. PLEASE DONATE A CUP OF COFFEE FOR THE EFFORT PUT INTO IT SO FAR.

In many markets the know how of a company is the foundation of its economic health.

The general concepts of the WordPress framework are brought into practical context by explanaitions in the context of an exemplary knowledge management system architecture:

  • the use and configuration of plugins,
  • the encapsulation of new reusable functionality in plugins,
  • and adding functionality to the WordPress theme using a child theme (code snippets).

The exemplary architecture uses:

  • the current WordPress core v4.0,
  • the current CMS-compatible WordPress theme KnowHow v1.1.6 by Chris Mooney (Hero Themes),
  • and many current CMS-related WordPress plugins.
