Add a new document through Documents → Add New Document in the WordPress admin panel.

Documents use the same basic fields as standard posts:

- Featured Image — The main image that represents this document in archive listings and the single page header.
- Excerpt — A short summary displayed in archive listings.
- Categories — Assign to one or more documents categories.
Document Options
Below the editor, you will find the Document Options panel with settings specific to this content type. If the options are not visible, check the Screen Options at the top of the page.
Important: Save the post first before editing the document options. Some fields only appear after the initial save.
- Info Box — Enable to display the document information box in the sidebar with file details.
- File Size — Enter the file size to display in the info box (e.g., 2.5 MB).
- Upload File(s) — Upload up to 5 files that visitors can download.
