 * Hey
 * I am just wondering if we can use a mix of the built in categories and Docs AND
   the regular posts and categories in WP?
 * Perhaps calling in post content into a docs post.
 * I have a tutorial site: [http://easywebdesigntutorials.com/](http://easywebdesigntutorials.com/)
   
   I am thinking of creating a starting out with WordPress kind of section with 
   a sidebar and a nice orderly index page that leads to various docs/posts. Hopefully
   your plugin can also create a flexible index page that I can go ahead and easily
   customize the CSS.
 * Have a great day!

 * Hi Paal,
 * Docu creates it’s own custom post type with custom category and works independent
   of WordPress default posts and categories.
 * If you like to customize things, for example adding content before or after the
   index page or the widget: [http://wp.dinamiko.com/demos/docu/doc/actions/](http://wp.dinamiko.com/demos/docu/doc/actions/)
 * Also you can create or modify templates in an upgrade safe way:
    [http://wp.dinamiko.com/demos/docu/doc/override-docu-templates-in-themes/](http://wp.dinamiko.com/demos/docu/doc/override-docu-templates-in-themes/)
 * Here is an example that uses Docu, the author is extending Docu without touching
   any line of code of Docu: [http://docs.hughlashbrooke.com/](http://docs.hughlashbrooke.com/)

 * Could you perhaps add Hugh’s docs page as a tutorial to your own site? (He made
   that page with various plugins though. I am wondering how far in creating a similar
   page can one get with your plugin…)
    As it would be a good example on how to 
   use your docu plugin.
 * Btw
    I have taken a quick look and your plugin looks really interesting!
