    Hi all!

    I would like to get the same post structuring and presentation as it’s done at developer.wordpress.org, for example:

    https://developer.wordpress.org/themes/basics/

    It’s a Book structure with:
    * standard posts as a building blocks;
    * partitioning of the posts in chapters;
    * aggregation of the chapters in books (or site sections);
    * advanced sorting (manually by priority/weight attribute, etc.);
    * breadcrumbs;
    * Next/Prev «page» (post) links;
    * …

    Can someone recommend such plugin or WP customization pack (if any exists)?
    Or any suggestions how to repeat such structure on pure WP installation?

    For any hints and suggestions thank you in advance!

    With best regards,
    Dmitry

    *

    This is all simply setting up posts in categories and child categories. This is part of WordPress core; no need for plugins.

    * breadcrumbs;
    * Next/Prev «page» (post) links;

    These are generally specific to themes, however, there may be plugins that will handle this for you.

    Have you already thoroughly searched through the plugin and theme repositories?

    Hi, kjodle,

    Yeah, before asking I’ve searched for different keywords (“Book(s)”, “Book structure”, “Chapter(s)”, “Serie(s)”, …) for several hours. Have found some interesting plugins for book presentation but nothing exactly the same clear and simple as at developer.worddpress.org. I’m asking in case someone knows exactly what it is (and I shouldn’t reinvent the wheel).

    My goal is to publish posts in a usual way. And then some valuable of them to select and to gather in chapters and books in the process. And rehash/reorganize them if needed.

    As to creation of the book structure with the basic features of WP, it is possible of course, and some solutions (like usage of categories) are seemed obvious. But in practice it becomes a mess with growing amount of entries: to select proper categories for a post with huge bloated trees of available categories — it becomes a pain. Building of a site map — also. Then the question: how to publish the book with chapters from the chosen categories as a separate section of site in the desirable way? Etc. (Or, I just can not cook it properly.)

    With best regards,
    Dmitry
