DotNetNuke® Project :: FAQs Module

FAQ Project

The FAQ module allows you to create a list of questions & answers. All questions are hyperlink buttons and will expand when clicked on. Only one answer is displayed at any given time.

If one throw a lot of brainstorming on the project, it can grow to become both a complex and functionality-rich module. I think a better approach would be to implement a few desireable features first and capture feedback on the path forward for the module.

Here are the first features that we will include in the next version of the FAQ project.

  • Use the ClientAPI to avoid postbacks when clicking on a question. A positive side effect of this will be that multiple answers can be viewed simultaneously.
  • Allow for the ability to change the View Order of individual questions. Preferably using a visual interface.
  • Allow for the ability to hide questions instead of deleting them.


Here are some other goals open for discussion for the long run after these inital features are implemented.

  • Submit Questions
  • Categories
  • Metadata
  • Workflows
  • Search Filter
  • Skinning
  • Multiple Views
  • Attach relevant links
  • Knowledge Base
 


FAQ Project Blog

This is actually my first blog post ever. It just had to be about DotNetNuke :-)

I have been working with DNN since the early dawn of version 1. I was hooked immediately. As many others.

I was also so fortunate to meet Shaun Walker in Seattle Okt 2005 during the MVP summit and we agreed that I was to be responsible for the FAQ project. In my opinion the FAQ module has a great future and my head is already "spinning around" thinking about features, bugs, requirements and everything related to software development.

I would also like to take this opportunity to thank everyone that contribute worldwide to DotNetNuke and Open Source ideals.

Re: Project Kickoff and future roadmap for the FAQ project

Nice to have you onboard. We are definitely looking forward to seeing more of the modules start taking off. This last year has been a real learning experience for all of us as we go down the path of not only managing development of the core platform, but also as we work with other talented developers in the community to really expand the capabilities of the modules themselves.
