Knowledge Base – A WordPress Wiki Theme Overview
Knowledge Base – A WordPress Wiki Theme is a design for support portals, product documentation and wiki-style sites. It gives customers a single place to look up how-to articles, browse frequently asked questions and, if you enable it, post in a support forum, which can take pressure off an email inbox or phone line.
InspiryThemes develops the theme, which has been on ThemeForest since 2013 and has received regular maintenance releases. The newest entry in its update log, from January 2025, adds an Instagram icon, fixes icon display and reports testing with WordPress 6.7.1 and PHP 8.1. The layout is built on Bootstrap, so it adjusts to phones and tablets.
Search is the centrepiece. An AJAX live search box returns results as visitors type, looking through articles, pages, FAQs and bbPress forums, topics and replies. Three homepage templates let you lead with featured and latest articles, with categories and related articles, or with categories and their descriptions, depending on how your documentation is organized.

Who Knowledge Base – A WordPress Wiki Theme Is Suitable For
This theme fits Canadian software vendors, web hosts, IT support providers and product manufacturers that want customers to help themselves. It also works for internal wikis in small firms, school or club resource libraries, and service businesses that answer the same questions every day.
Organizations that want documentation and a customer forum in one place will get the most from it, since forum posts appear in the same live search as articles. The quick links and support widgets make it easy to point visitors to a contact page when self-help is not enough, and the video post format suits teams that record short walkthroughs alongside written guides.
Important Notes About Knowledge Base – A WordPress Wiki Theme
The last update is from January 2025, so compatibility with current WordPress needs confirming. Live chat depends on the separate WP Live Chat plugin and the Twitter and Flickr widgets on outside services, so confirm each still works. Machine-translated language files mentioned in the changelog should be reviewed before use.
Forums and chat need terms of use, moderation, a privacy policy and a takedown process for member posts, with extra care for minors. The owner is responsible for these policies.
