## Knowledge Base Essentials

The knowledge base is documentation on your website to help your clients get answers to their issues. To build a knowledge base, we need to analyze support/community requests, organize content, set requirements, and update existing articles to keep it helpful.

The knowledge base should be easily accessible on the WordPress website, so you can add it to your navigation (menu), footer and share it with clients via  **welcome mails**.

## Best Knowledge Base WordPress Plugins for Elementor 

Here are the essential Elementor plugins and main features you need for **creating the WordPress knowledge base**.

### JetSearch

One of the top features, knowledge base should have, is search. JetSearch plugin can help you create a searchable knowledge base.

This plugin is a fast, Ajax-based search for Elementor to seek on custom post type, default tags, categories, or any taxonomy.

### JetEngine

The next feature we need is  **creating ** [**custom post types**](https://crocoblock.com/plugins/jetengine/custom-post-type/) for the knowledge base articles. You can create CPTs for the knowledge base, troubleshooting, etc.

This helps  **organize the content** , add  **tags or categories** , and keep your blog and knowledge base separate to not confuse users.

## Additional Features for Knowledge Base

I’ve covered the essential features you may need to add KB to your Elementor website. However, there are lots of ideas to customize your knowledge base. Here are a few knowledge base additional features. 

### Navigation

Create understandable knowledge base [navigation ](https://crocoblock.com/plugins/jetmenu/)to show article categories, add badges (new, basic, advanced, etc.)

### Before/after image slider

Add an [image comparison slider](https://crocoblock.com/widgets/image-comparison/) to add more interactivity to your documentation. For example, you can show how something can look before using your product/services and after using it.

### Video playlist

What about adding a [video playlist](https://crocoblock.com/widgets/video-playlist/) to your knowledge base? Some users prefer written documentation, but video can also be helpful to follow your documentation step-by-step.

### Popups

There are mixed thoughts about [popups](https://crocoblock.com/interactive-popup-library/), but this tool definitely can be helpful in building your knowledge base. 

For instance, you want to let your users know about discounts, get clients to subscribe to your newsletter and show cookie/terms/policy popups.
