A knowledge base with live search and ratings
Tessera adds a knowledge base post type with categories and tags. Live search shows results before visitors finish typing. In addition, readers can like or dislike each article, which tells you what needs a rewrite.
The package also includes the DV FAQ plugin. It builds accordion FAQ pages with their own search, categories and topics.
A support forum with best answers
The bbPress integration goes further than most themes. You can mark topics as solved, pick a best answer and let users post private replies. Furthermore, members can report spam and quote other replies.
