1. It might not be the next release, but yes, I will be adding breadcrumbs
2. Yes to this as well, but I’m not 100% sure on how to implement this reordering without crazy amount of code. It’s something that might come in a much further version of the plugin.
Right now an easy way is to just use 1. 2. etc. in the category names.
Plugins like this might help but I haven’t tried it yet.

3. The search-box version is already active in the Github repository beta version. It’s going to find it’s way in the next version for sure.
4. Do you mean more than 2 columns? This can be easily done with a little bit of code, but this is likely going to be an addon for this plugin with more styles
On the deleting content, I normally clean up after my plugins. However, in this case, I’ve intentionally left this out right now in order to avoid a user from accidentally losing the data in case they delete it from the interface.
I’m in the process of adding in a Settings page and when I do this, I’ll throw in an option to opt-in to deleting the data.
Thanks for the speedy reply!
Not a big problem – easy to put one at the beginning of the content.
I used the first plugin to re-order the categories – worked very well and was easy to use – drag and drop.
I understand on the columns – not a big issue.
I went thru the DB and can clean manually – but I think the checkbox would be a nice thing to add. Wordfence does this.
One more question regarding search – is it targeted to the knowledgebase posts? Or the entire site? We are building a membership based site with content that is not accessible or maybe appropriate for the search – so I would not want it in the results. I’ve not had much time to test your plugin yet to verify this.
Again – thank you.
The search works only on the Knowledgebase. The plugin includes an inbuilt search template and you can easily replace this with your own custom theme one.
Thanks for confirming regarding the plugin to sort the categories. That’s definitely good and know and recommend to everyone who uses the KB. It helps trying to get this coded in, at least int he early versions.
The plugin worked great on sorting the Categories, is there any way to sort the Articles? I thought it was by post_title, so I put a number in front of the title to get it to sort in the category. But on the KB page it looks like it is by ID – correct?
Solution or workaround?
It is by ID.
Again, you might want to consider a workaround plugin at this juncture:

I found this plugin that will do categories, tags and posts. Once installed, select types to sort under Settings. Then go to the page (Articles, Categories) and simply drag and drop. Hint – for Articles you’ll need to activate both Knowledgebase and Posts.

Thank you for testing and confirming this. It definitely is useful to point to current users of the plugin. Avoids me trying to duplicate the functionality immediately and focussing on some more KB specific features like what you mentioned in your post above.
Glad to help. Search and breadcrumbs are definitely better places to spend your time.
