[3.2][RC] FAQ Manager

Post by Ger »

Extension Name: FAQ Manager
Author: Ger

Extension Description:
This extension replaces the original FAQ page with a database driven FAQ, enabling you to edit, add or delete questions and categories. You can also re-order all categories and questions at will. All standard FAQ entries can be imported with a single click.
As this extension uses the default phpBB style as well as the help manager to display the FAQ, all other extensions hooking into the related events should work as expected.

This extension is inspired by the work of david63 who created a FAQ manager for phpBB3.1. Due to changes in how the FAQ is handled in 3.2, that extension unfortunately doesn't work in newer phpBB versions.

Extension Version: 1.0.0-RC1

Extension Download: https://github.com/GerB/faqmanager

Requirements:
No special requirements

Translations:
English and Dutch included.
If you are willing to translate, please just leave a link in this topic.

Thanks!!!

P.S. Thanks for Ger now, and david63 (by the previous version) ;)

Seems like you don't have phpBB 3.2.2 but an earlier version

I have only tested this against the latest version. Maybe I'll look at supporting earlier 3.2.x versions but due to the current stage of development I need focus.

On a sidenote: just pushed an update to handle sorting of categories better.

All planned functions are now completed and working as expected. You are able to import standard FAQ files, add, edit, remove and rearrange categories as well as single entries.

Please let me know if there are any other features you desire.

Ow damn.
I used a PHP 7 shorthand notation, you probably use PHP 5.x. Pushed a fix for that just now.

Well, that's still a bug, just a silent one ;)

Some improper logic could lead to that empty page. Should work now on both 5.x as 7.x.
