FAQ Manager

[hcgalvin]

I too have the issue where when you select a category using the sidebox, it shows everything, not just the category I selected. How is this fixed? I saw mrowkaz's files, and his code post, I've downloaded his file pack, but I've given up looking for the file that he referenced when he posted the code, because I can't seem to find it. Nothing seems to fix it.

In the Admin settings, when you go to "All FAQs Page" and try to change the sort order, it doesn't give me the option for Category.

This is frustrating!

Here's the site I'm working on:

http://69.175.92.158/

There's no nameservers pointing to the site yet because I want to get it fully functional before I transfer over.

Help!

OK, I fixed my own "Doesn't show the option for Category in the Admin Settings" by utilizing the SQL configuration from page 25, but I still don't have an answer as to why when I click on any category I can't just get the results from THAT category, and not everything else. Any ideas?

Nevermind!

It was on that page as well, Neil's includes.zip fixed it for me. Yay!

Guess I need more reading comprehension.

Finally found this thread... I would be easier for the non English beginners to have a link to this thread on the module download page (as per must of the other contributions)

I got the main page showing under each category. sorted it commenting out the file init_faq.php

I can't really fix anything as can barely read php, so I guess if none of the past threads solutions help I will need to pass on this mod. Is a shame because it would fit nicely on my zencart!

At least I've learned to test every single mod on a dummy zencart before using it on my live business!

Absolutely! It is imperative to have a non-public test or dev subdomain, or a local LAMP server to try things out on.

Hi,

I need to uninstall this module. Can someone please help write the uninstall sql? Thanks.

I am trying to install the FAQ Manager 1.(2) into our new test system running 1.3.5 of zencart.

The files upload fine, but when I try to install the SQL I get the following error:

1062 Duplicate entry 'SHOW_FAQ_COUNTS' for key 2
in:
[INSERT INTO zen_configuration VALUES ('', 'Show FAQ Category Counts', 'SHOW_FAQ_COUNTS', 'true', 'Count recursively how many FAQs are in each FAQ category', @t4, 9, NULL, now(), NULL, 'zen_cfg_select_option(array(''true'', ''false''), ');]
If you were entering information, press the BACK button in your browser and re-check the information you had entered to be sure you left no blank fields.

I deleted the tables in relation to faq_xxxxx but still get the same error as above.... ?

If anyone has any suggestions that would be great.

Many Thanks.
Chris

for uninstall all keys execute this sql query from admin-> sql statement

DELETE FROM `zen_configuration` WHERE `configuration_key` LIKE '%_FAQ_%'

best regards

does anyone know how to uninstall this module?

I take it there is no fix yet for the main page showing in all categories that have sub categories. I think if this got fixed it would be a usable module. If I knew how I would fix it but sad to say I am not that good yet. Please someone help with this.

Look.... after using this module and modifying it I can say this: I am not a fan of it's original architecture, another one should basically be written from the ground up to be much simpler and more functional.

The way I see it, there is no need to have full on categories and levels for something as simple as a FAQ. Most sites these days are just putting all the questions / answers on one page and simply supplying a bookmarked navigation at the top.

It is truly a matter of preference whether you want to go the simple way or the more technical way. I have gotten this working for me and I even added url rewrites (custom) to make it more usable, but you will need a little bit determination and know how to get it there.
