Menu - Do you have your "Help | User Guide" online?

Last updated by RebeccaLiu over 11 years ago.See history

Users who are finding your application a little hard to use will always look for a user guide. The first thing they would do is to reach for the help menu. The "About" button can provide a link to the product website, but this is not very handy and obvious for a user who needs quick help. A link to the user guide must be in the "Help" menu.

There are benefits of having your user guide online:

  1. Easier to keep up-to-date and maintain
  2. Stats on usage
  3. Allows community commenting
