Publishing a web help system on a WordPress website
We have almost completed the creation of a web help system with HelpSmith.
I have a couple of questions:
- How can we publish the help system on our website?
- Is Web Help compatible with a website created using WordPress?
Publishing a Web Help system

Web Help is compatible with any CMSs
Yes, a web help system which is created using the HelpSmith help authoring tool is compatible with any Content Management Systems (CMSs).
Technically, a web help system is a collection of HTML (CSS, JS, etc.) files which work as a static HTML website.
Therefore, you can upload the generated "webhelp" folder to any website which can be based on any CMS including WordPress, Drupal, Joomla, or use a custom CMS. Since the web help system does not rely on any server-side scripts, the topics are accessed by the web browser as regular HTML files.
