Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about WP Super FAQ

The most basic usage is simply [wp_super_faq]. By default WP Super FAQ will not display the questions by category. If you would like to display your questions by category you can use [wp_super_faq show_categories=true]. This will display a header for each category and place the relevant questions in each section. If you would like to display a SINGLE category you can use [wp_super_faq show_specific_category=slug] where slug is the SLUG of the category you would like to display. The slug can be found by clicking on FAQ Categories in the admin area.

Yes. WordPress supplies a nice function to use shortcodes in PHP. For WP Super FAQ you would use <?php echo do_shortcode( '[wp_super_faq]' ) ?>. A reference for this function can be found here.

Yes you can (although it is slightly obfuscated). To reorder the questions you just have to reorder the dates of the Questions in the Admin area.

You can do this too. All you have to do is use the show_specific_category style shortcode and place a few of them on the same page in whatever order you would like.
