Bulk Importing Markdown Documentation into WordPress

Writing documentation in Markdown is popular because it is simple and version-control friendly. The challenge is turning those Markdown files into a polished, navigable experience on a WordPress site.

Designed for Bulk Import

RSM Documentation lets you create a Documentation Set and import many .md files at once. It automatically handles ordering (using filename prefixes or frontmatter), creates the navigation structure, and turns README.md into the set overview page.

This is much faster than manually creating pages and copying content for large documentation projects.

Professional Polish with Minimal Work

Once imported, the plugin adds left/right navigation, breadcrumbs, a live table of contents with scrollspy, last-updated dates, and print support. Your theme’s header and footer remain in place.

You get a professional documentation experience without having to build all the surrounding UI yourself.

Good for Plugin Docs, Internal Wikis, and Product Manuals

Whether you are documenting a WordPress plugin, creating internal company runbooks, or publishing product manuals, the workflow is the same: write in Markdown, import in bulk, and let the plugin handle presentation and navigation.

On the Pro plan you get unlimited sets, drag-and-drop reordering, and more print customization options.
