I’m attempting to write a help page for my forum users.

My first aim is a page that will automatically build based on the features available to the user. For example, the “How to write HTML markup” section, would loop through all the valid tags, explaining each of them. If I block or add a tag via an addon, the help file would reflect that. Or, the section on “How to moderate” will only show up for users that are logged in with moderation capability.

It also occurred to me that plugins could be written with help built-in, both for the administrator and user. Just as a plugin can currently write itself into the admin menu.

Are there any protocols for creating help features for BBPress users? Standard structures, hooks, places to write the data, anything?
