Multisite support

WordPress Multisite enables you to create several instances of WordPress managed within one installation.

From now on, the ONLYOFFICE Docs plugin supports this feature as well. Thus, Super Admin can configure the plugin for all sites at once, or allow site administrators changing the connector settings for their sites.

As a site administrator, you can inherit the network settings for the ONLYOFFICE Docs plugin or configure it yourself in case Super Admin checked the corresponding option.

Where to find: Admin dashboard -> ONLYOFFICE Docs -> Settings

Working with PDF

Open PDF files uploaded to your WordPress via admin dashboard for form filling and annotating:

  • fill out interactive fields;
  • highlight, underline and strikethrough text;
  • leave comments;
  • draw different objects and lines with the built-in drawing tools.

Along with inserting files to the published pages via the editor frame, embed documents as a link.

You can decide whether to show the Open in ONLYOFFICE button next to the file link or not.

Moreover, you can easily align the embedded file on the page as you need and adjust its width and height (the latter option is applicable when inserting the editor frame).

Access for anonymous users

The option to embed a document as a link also allows unauthorized users to open the file attached to a public post for viewing by clicking the file link or button.
