right, but at the moment
when I click on submit qn, it shows
“Thank you for asking.
Once the admin has approved your question, it will show up in the FAQ.
Click here to return to the FAQ”
but on a blank white page without the layout etc. how can I make the header and footer show up as well? thanks
i found this line
require_once('../../../wp-blog-header.php'); on the faq_Ask.php but I don’t know why is not showing up
Yes, sorry to mention, i have WP 2 installed and working
All, I’ve fixed the issue with not being able to ask a question if you are not a member.
Truth, that line is not the line that shows the theme header, that’s the wordpress common/header php. So that’s why there’s no header showing.
carnold,
Here is the file paths:/wp-admin/faq/faq_admin.php
/wp-content/plugins/faq/faq.php
/wp-content/plugins/faq/faq_ask.php
I have chmod’ed permissions on all the files. The plugin shows up in the admin panel and will activate but when nav’ing to “options”->FAQ, i get the above error.
you have to put the faq_admin.php in the wp-content/plugins/faq/ directory (where it originally was)
Everything seems to be working now. Yaba daba doo! Thanks again for your help. And, to let you know, it works in WP 1.5.2.
Let’s say you have 100 FAQs. Will they all appear on the Options-FAQ page or is there a way to have only 5 or 10 displayed at a time, with a next/previous?
You know, this plugin is somewhat like some quiz and test php scripts I’ve looked at.
Paging is not planned, but with the inclusion of categories, the impact of not having paging is lessened.
jwurster, I just noticed that you’re using the rin theme too ?
Yes, that’s my favorite 3-column theme.
Great, I got it working great already.
Just a few questions:
– Is it possible to let the after-submitting-question text, the thank you …. to appear on the same page instead of directing to wp-content/plugins/faq/faq_ask.php?
– Highlighting the non-approved questions on the FAQ options page so that it’s easier for us to see which questions are newly submitted etc?
Thank you for the great plugin 🙂
Truth,
The latest version now has the ability to notify you via email if a new question is asked by someone who is NOT LOGGED IN.
Also, non-approved Questions are highlighted to distinguish them from already approved ones.
Finally, the Question management has been moved to you guessed it, the Manage menu.
Thanks VaamYob for the great plugin, tested it and everything is working great 🙂
Just updated, the FAQ is now a top level admin menu option, with “Manage”, “Awaiting Approval(3)”, and “Options” sub-menus.
Also, the “Ask a Question” form now does not navigate to that hack of a “thank you for asking” page.
Enjoy !

Right.. updated.. an error..
at the waiting approval page
Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/huaian/public_html/liberta/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/faq/faq.php on line 175
Edit: There is this error only when there are no questions for approval.
Not too fond of the iframe either, is it possible to redirect to the faq page after submitting?
thanks 🙂
ok, I bit the bullet and am now using AJAX for asking questions, also fixed the issue with the foreach error if no questions need approval.

some questions abt this…
I updated to the latest version but the ajax is not working for me. From your faq, I see that it render some java code but mine doesn’t. Any idea what it’s not working? thank you
