GovernDocs Ordinances is the ordinance management area inside GovernDocs for creating, organising, and publishing local ordinances in a structured way from WordPress.

It is designed primarily for municipalities, councils, and local governments that need a clear place to manage local laws, regulations, amendments, and related documents.

What an ordinance entry includes

Each ordinance can store a title, ordinance number, status, dates, description, and supporting document.

Ordinances can also be linked to the meetings where they were considered or adopted, making it easy to connect an ordinance with the relevant council record.

How ordinances display on the front end

Ordinances can be displayed on your website using a shortcode. The frontend output can show the ordinance title and number, relevant dates and status, description, and the associated document with a download option.

This makes Ordinances useful for creating a searchable and structured public archive of local laws and regulations.
