tags appear in FAQ question text - Clicking on category links takes user to front page - FAQ nodes not being created INTRODUCTION ------------ Maintainer: Stella Power (http://drupal.org/user/66894) Documentation: http://drupal.org/node/129209 The Frequently Asked Questions (faq) module allows users with the 'administer faq' permission to create question and answer pairs which they want displayed on the 'faq' page. The 'faq' page is automatically generated from the FAQ nodes configured and the layout of this page can be modified on the settings page. Users will need the 'view faq' permission to view the 'faq' page. There are 2 blocks included in this module, one shows a list of FAQ categories while the other can show a configurable number of recent FAQs added. Note the function theme_faq_highlights(), which shows the last X recently created FAQs, used by one of the blocks, can also be called in a php-filtered node if desired. INSTALLATION ------------ 1. Copy faq folder to modules directory. 2. At admin/build/modules enable the faq module. 3. Enable permissions at admin/user/access. 4. Configure the module at admin/settings/faq. UPGRADE NOTICE --------------- When using categorized FAQ nodes, the disabling of the FAQ module causes the vocabulary to lose the association with the FAQ content type. This results in no FAQ nodes being displayed when you re-enable the FAQ module. Before opening an issue, please verify that this setting is still in place. CONFIGURATION ------------- Once the module is activated, you can create your question and answer pairs by creating FAQ nodes (Create content >> FAQ). This allows you to edit the question and answer text. In addition, if the 'Taxonomy' module is enabled and there are some terms configured for the FAQ node type, it will also be possible to put the questions into different categories when editing. KNOWN ISSUES ------------- No FAQs appear after module upgrade ----------------------------------- When using categorized FAQ nodes, the disabling of the FAQ module causes the vocabulary to lose the association with the FAQ content type. This results in no FAQ nodes being displayed when you re-enable the FAQ module. Before opening an issue, please verify that this setting is still in place.
tags appear in FAQ question text ------------------------------------ When using WYSIWYG editors, such as TinyMCE and FCKeditor,
and other HTML tags may appear in the displayed question text. This is because the faq title or question input box is a textarea and not a textfield, so the faq module can accommodate longer question texts. The p-tags come from the WYSIWYG editor used and not the FAQ module. This is because TinyMCE, and other WYSIWYG editors, attach themselves to all textareas on a given page. Details on how to prevent this can be found at http://drupal.org/node/294708 Clicking on category links takes user to front page --------------------------------------------------- Instead of being taken to the categorized faq page, the front page is displayed when the user clicks on a faq category. This is something to do with the pathauto module and can be easily fixed by doing a bulk update of paths for the faq vocabulary. FAQ nodes not being created --------------------------- If using MySQL 5.0.* with STRICT_ALL_TABLES mode, then you may get errors about the question text being too long to be inserted into the node and node_revisions tables. The solution is to either not use the strict mode, or add the following 4 triggers: CREATE TRIGGER node_shrtn_ttl_ins BEFORE INSERT ON node FOR EACH ROW SET NEW.title = SUBSTR(NEW.title,1,128); CREATE TRIGGER node_shrtn_ttl_upd BEFORE UPDATE ON node FOR EACH ROW SET NEW.title = SUBSTR(NEW.title,1,128); CREATE TRIGGER node_rev_shrtn_ttl_ins BEFORE INSERT ON node_revisions FOR EACH ROW SET NEW.title = SUBSTR(NEW.title,1,128); CREATE TRIGGER node_rev_shrtn_ttl_upd BEFORE UPDATE ON node_revisions FOR EACH ROW SET NEW.title = SUBSTR(NEW.title,1,128);
