[Support request] How to create docs page similar to https://docs.generatepress.com/

[Alejandro]

Hi!

I would like to create a similar site that looks like https://docs.generatepress.com/ with instructions about how to use my app.

I have two questions:

1. How can I have a menu with blog post titles and icons like this: https://cl.ly/3a85e75b56be

2. How can I have a sidebar with categories and show the article as you have here: https://cl.ly/c85645636a02 and here: https://cl.ly/cfef3d111f9a

Thank you for your help.

Hi there,

That’s actually a custom theme we built specifically for the documentation.

The icons next to the links are just font icons applied as pseudo selectors.

The sidebar with categories is a part of the template we built for the theme. It uses PHP to fetch the current categories and output them.

It’s a little too advanced to explain via the forum, unfortunately. It’s a theme we’ve considered releasing in the past, but we wouldn’t be able to properly support it at the moment.

Documentation: http://docs.generatepress.com/
Adding CSS: http://docs.generatepress.com/article/adding-css/
Ongoing Development: https://generatepress.com/ongoing-development

Thank you Tom!!

It would be amazing have the opportunity to use that theme. I haven’t found anything close to that to manage documentation.

I hope you can release soon.
