FAQ System Contrib ?

[Blowin]

I just added the FAQ System contrib (1948) and everything installed okay I believe, but I have no FAQ box on my website! The admin stuff is all there, but there is nothing related to FAQ on my site. Any ideas of what I did wrong?

I would guess that you did not place the box in column left or right.

 

I just took a quick look at that one the other day so I'm not to familiar yet but another possibility is that if there are no faqs the box won't show (that's just a maybe)

I've downloaded the faq contrib too.

 

I haven't installed it yet though.

 

I've just had a look at the files and the reason there is no faq box is because the link to the faq has to be added to the Informatiion InfoBox.

 

Place this bit of code in your Information box:

 

<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_FAQ) . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_FAQ . '</a><br>' . //FAQ SYSTEM

do I need to create a new info box or did the contrib make one for me and just didn't add the code? If I need to make one, is there an easy way to do it?

No...you have to manually add the link to the Information InfoBox.

 

 

 

Go to:

 

includes/boxes/information.php

 

 

You will see links like this:

(there will be more links in that box btw. This is just an example)

 

 

<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_SHIPPING) . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_SHIPPING . '</a><br>' .

<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_PRIVACY) . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_PRIVACY . '</a><br>' . //FAQ SYSTEM

 

 

Simply add the FAQ link to them, like so:

 

<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_SHIPPING) . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_SHIPPING . '</a><br>' .

<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_FAQ) . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_FAQ . '</a><br>' . //FAQ SYSTEM

<a href="' . tep_href_link(FILENAME_PRIVACY) . '">' . BOX_INFORMATION_PRIVACY . '</a><br>' .
