SiteDocs

Overview

SiteDocs generates plain-English documentation for a WordPress site - the kind of handover manual an agency gives a client. It scans your custom post types, ACF field groups, settings screens, WooCommerce setup, theme branding, server environment and third-party integrations, then uses AI to write a short, non-technical guide for each one.

Everything lives under Tools → SiteDocs.

SiteDocs does not change your site's content or configuration. It reads site data and writes documentation only.
