## Description
The **FAQ Schema Block** plugin provides a seamless way to create FAQ sections in
the WordPress Block Editor (Gutenberg) while automatically generating the necessary`
FAQPage` JSON-LD schema for Google Rich Results.
By using this plugin, you can significantly improve your SEO visibility. When Google
indexes your site, it will read the schema and can display your FAQs directly in
the search results, increasing your click-through rate (CTR) and driving more organic
traffic to your website.
### Why Choose DV FAQ Schema Block?
Most FAQ plugins rely on heavy JavaScript libraries (like jQuery) to power their
accordions, slowing down your website and hurting your Core Web Vitals. Our plugin
takes a modern approach:
* **Zero JavaScript Bloat:** We use native HTML5 `` and `` tags
to power the accordion toggle. This guarantees maximum performance and accessibility.
* **True Accordion Mode:** Set your FAQs to act as a true exclusive accordion (
opening one automatically closes the others) or let them all stay open.
* **Customizable Icons:** Easily upload your own SVG or PNG icons for the expand/
collapse indicators directly within the block settings.
* **Perfect JSON-LD Schema:** The plugin automatically extracts your questions
and answers and generates perfectly valid `application/ld+json` schema right
in the footer of your page.
### Features Overview:
* Built specifically for the modern WordPress Block Editor (Gutenberg).
* Beautiful “Accordion” and “Always Expanded” display options.
* Outputs valid `application/ld+json` schema directly on the frontend.
* Lightweight: Uses native HTML5 `` and `` tags without bloating
your site with heavy JavaScript.
* Inherits your active theme’s typography and colors to blend in perfectly.
* Fully responsive and mobile-friendly out of the box.

## FAQ
### Does it output valid schema?
Yes, it automatically generates valid JSON-LD `FAQPage` schema based on the Questions
and Answers you provide inside the block. This helps your page qualify for Google
Rich Results.
### Will this plugin slow down my website?
No, absolutely not! Unlike other accordion plugins that load heavy jQuery or JavaScript
libraries, this block uses native HTML5 `` and `` elements. It
is incredibly fast and lightweight.
### Can I use multiple FAQ blocks on the same page?
Yes, you can add as many FAQ items as you need. The plugin will intelligently group
them and output a unified, correctly formatted JSON-LD script for the entire page.
### Does it work with any WordPress theme?
Yes! As long as your theme supports the WordPress Block Editor (Gutenberg), this
plugin will work seamlessly.
### How do I test if my schema is working?
Once you add the block and publish the page, you can copy your page URL and paste
it into Google’s official [Rich Results Testing Tool](https://search.google.com/test/rich-results)
to verify the schema.
### Can I style the accordion?
Yes. The accordion inherits typography and colors directly from your theme so it
matches your brand immediately. It also includes minimal structural CSS to ensure
it looks great out of the box, which can be easily overridden via your theme’s stylesheet.
