Publish the forum’s built-in knowledge base

Before you start

This is Forovanta’s own KB, separate from this Grav documentation site. Articles require a category. Drafts are readable by staff only; published articles follow the built-in KB’s audience rules.

Step by step

1. Create a knowledge-base category and set its presentation/position.
2. Create an article, choose that category and write its title, address, short summary and body.
3. Choose the status. Keep it draft while reviewing; publish when ready.
4. Choose Feature first in its category and Position if needed, then save.
5. Open the public knowledge base and test the article as a guest.

Settings and behaviour

This is Forovanta’s own KB, separate from this Grav documentation site. Articles require a category. Drafts are readable by staff only; published articles follow the built-in KB’s audience rules.

A custom address is used at ?page=kb&slug=...; a short summary helps the index explain what the article answers. Featured pushes an article ahead within its category. Category artwork uses the offered upload control. Keep article titles task-based, such as “Reset your password”, rather than “Information”.

Check the result

Confirm a draft is unavailable to an ordinary reader and the published copy appears in its category.

Common questions and troubleshooting

No article form/category: create a category first. Whole KB gives 404: check System → Features. Still draft: staff visibility is not proof of publication.
