Questions and answers

Features

• A “Questions and answers” page: an intro and a list of questions, each expanding on click. The first one is open from the start, so it is clear what kind of answers are here.
• Expanding is done with the browser's own means, without scripts: a person with scripts turned off, a screen reader and a search robot all see the page the same way.
• Questions are grouped into sections; questions without a section go last, under the “Other” heading.
• Answers support markup: lists, links, bold.
• Order is set by a number: lower goes higher, empty goes last. A draft is visible only in the admin panel.
• A question is shown in all site languages or only in its own. Sections have no translations — each language gets its own sections.
• The section card on the home page shows how many questions there are in the reader's language.

Configuration

In the admin panel: “Settings”, “Questions and answers” section.

• Section intro (“Texts for visitors” group) — the text above the list, with markup. Empty — the engine uses its own.

Permissions

• See questions and answers — open the section in the admin panel.
• Add and edit questions — add, change and remove questions, create sections.

Both permissions are granted on installation to the administrator and the editor.

On the site

/voprosy — the questions page, a “Questions” item in the site menu. The page takes its markup from the active theme and looks like part of the site with any theme.

Installation and removal

Tables voprosy_items (questions) and voprosy_categories (sections). A removed question disappears from the site and from the list. Removing the module with data erases both tables and touches no other data.

Left out on purpose

• Ordering by date: questions are read top to bottom, and their order follows meaning — first “how much does it cost”, then “how do I return it”.
• Script-based expanding: for a screen reader and a search robot it would turn into emptiness.
