Petr_Mindl is seeking a solution to create an in-app knowledge base widget using Discourse Docs. Petr_Mindl wants to replicate a widget like the one found on Userpilot’s blog, displaying a knowledge base within an in-app widget. tobiaseigen pointed out that Discourse has features like automatic table of contents and search, but Petr_Mindl clarified that they need the widget on their external SaaS domain.
Petr_Mindl further explained that they want a floating widget that displays relevant help links and articles from their Discourse Docs knowledge base when clicked. They would like to create a similar experience to Zendesk’s embeddables, using Discourse Docs as the source for the knowledge base content.
Hello, community,
we are looking for a solution to create an in-app widget with Knowledge Base.
Like this
https://userpilot.com/blog/help-center-widget/
Or
We want to create a KB using Discourse Docs and then link it with an in-app widget.
Does anyone know of a solution to achieve this please?
Thank you
Petr
Hi Petr! Welcome. The first link you shared appears to have a table of contents linking to headings within the page. This is something you can achieve with DiscoTOC - automatic table of contents.
The second screenshot is of search, which Discourse does very wel! Try it out here on meta, by selecting the 
in top right corner.
I’m not quite sure what you mean by “link it in with an in-app widget”. Can you explain in some more detail?
Hi Tobias,
thank you for your reply.
I found the widget right for Discourse. But we need the widget on our external domain.
Explain
We run a SaaS and we want to add instant Help using a floating widget. The user clicks on the widget and the help links /articles are displayed. Like here Develop custom experiences with the Zendesk Platform | Zendesk Sunshine You can see animation how it should works.
(This is a common way of displaying help in SaaS projects.)
The KnowledgeBase we want to make by Discourse Docs. Like this Documentation - Discourse Meta
So we are looking for a solution for the widget that can display relevant results from our Discourse Docs KB.
