At first this component looked to be exactly what I was looking for - a simple component to enter FAQs that could be linked to the main menu. The only downside is it does not provide any value without an expand and contract feature. I could get the same result by just typing my questions and answers in an article. At a minimum it should provide a means of hiding the answer until the user initiates an click/mouseover event. Otherwise, it would work for my purposes.

A nice bare-bones component for everyone to improve it according to specific needs. Clean code that's easy to modify.

To make it more attractive for anyone searching for out-of-a-box functionality I'd suggest adding:
1. Multi-language support.
2. Pagination.
3. Categories (but maybe not).

And please fix those hard-coded table names in various places.

Thanks for your review:

Multi-language support and pagination are both planned - hard coded table names have been removed in bug fix v 1.0.1 just uploaded.
