MooFAQ - The Component With Accordion Effects

**** SECURITY LEAK FIXED ****
# Every one is advised to replace all files!

MooFAQ is a FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions) Component for the award winning Joomla! CMS Framework. MooFAQ uses the MooTools Accordion for the effects and the Joomla! content items for the FAQ content.

So you will have a full featured FAQ with all WYSIWYG Editors features, such as:
* Add images;
* Edit the HTML code;
* Use your template CSS;
* Text formating options: alignment, indentation, bullets list, etc
* Font formatting: type, size, color, style, bold, italic, etc
* Add links and anchors;
* And much more...

And you will have all Joomla! content option, such as:
* Publishing: Start and Finish Publishing, Ordering, Author Alias, Access Level;
* Using mosimage and mospagebreak if needed;
* All content plugins (mambots) can be applied to the faq item;
* Compatible with Joom!Fish [1];
* Change the content parameters: Show or hide section, category, author, created date, PDF icon, Print icon,...
* Add Meta Info: Keywords and description;

*** You can publish as many FAQ items as you want ***

Although this component was meant to display FAQs, you can use to show any content category, or don't select any category to show all your site content.

"FAQ is an initialism for "Frequently Asked Question(s)". The term refers to listed questions and answers, all supposed to be frequently asked in some context, and pertaining to a particular topic. Since the acronym originated in textual media, its pronunciation varies; "fak", "faks" and "F.A.Q." are commonly heard. Depending on usage, the term may refer specifically to a single frequently-asked question, or to an assembled list of many questions and their answers." Wikipedia

Ilike this one. by cantthinkofanickname, June 26, 2008

I am testing this and it is now working well so far. One problem I had/have is that it expects to be linked to the mod_mainmenu which is the Joomla! "top" menu. I have several menus made from mod_mainmenu and my sites primary menu is not the Joomla! "top" menu. So I have had to create a submenu (Link:URL) in the Joomla "top" menu, unpublish it, copy the URL and paste this into a submenu item on my sites primary menu and publish that. That seems to work and the e-mail works as well. If the designer has a comment or code change idea that would be welcome.

Very handy for other users to put their own questions into the system.

Great component by victune, January 10, 2008

This is what I looked for. If you need FAQ section on your site you should try this component at first. The MooFAQ component will make your life easier and enhance your SEO.

Excellent Component by dniezby, December 24, 2007

Needs a little more documentation but works wonderfully.

The "Answer not found? Ask a question here" is not documented at all. My users were submitting questions but I wasn't getting any notifications or eMails.

I fixed it by correcting the GLOBAL CONFIGURATION / MAIL / MAIL FROM email address to the address where you'd like notifications sent.

Hopefully a new release is being worked on where the user manually enter an eMail address where questions may be submitted.

Nice, easy to use, dynamic feeling FAQ by SineMacula, October 16, 2007

I quite like this component. It's very easy to use by simply assigning a category of articles for your FAQ. I'm hoping there will be a Joomla! 1.5 version!! ;-)

Very slick way to show your FAQ by dax702, September 25, 2007

I really like the way this component works, the nice mootools effects really spice up what is usually a boring question and answer section. I've come across a few bugs but this is a brand new component so I'm sure they will be fixed as they are minor. The only thing missing is the integration of something like EasyCaptcha for when someone submits a question (if you have that feature enabled) I recommend either EasyCaptcha or reCaptcha could possibly be integrated somehow too.. Overall though, a very good component, especially for being brand new!
