Guide 3

Craft CMS is intuitive. Marketing plans and organizational workflows—not so much. Guide lets you create a user manual throughout Craft CMS so clients don‘t need to go far to get the answers they need.

Guide was built to be a CMS manual, but Guide 3 is also a quick way to create widgets and unique Craft CP pages, without the use of a custom module or knowledge of PHP.

  • The latest major plugin version that targets the previous released major version of Craft CMS will be supported with bug fixes intruduced in updates to that version of Craft CMS.
  • Previous major plugin versions will only get security-related updates—when necessary.
