Optionally, customize templates and styles via your sitepackage extension. 5. Adjust TypoScript settings manually or through the Constant Editor. ### Available Configuration Options: [](#available-configuration-options) - **Storage PID**: Limit FAQ records to a specific page/folder. If left empty, records will be fetched from all pages. - **Category Parent**: Filter categories by a parent category. If not set, all categories will be listed. - **Items Per Page**: Control pagination size. If not specified, a default value of `5` will be used. Once configuration is done, don’t forget to **clear the TYPO3 cache**. --- πŸ’‘ Frontend Output ----------------- [](#-frontend-output) The extension renders: - A sidebar of categories with active selection - A search box (GET method) with a clear button - An accordion list of FAQs with collapsible answers - A rating bar (thumbs up/down) - Pagination below FAQ listing - Dynamic UI messages based on rating - FAQs are **sorted by most helpful votes first**, then by **least not-helpful votes**, and finally by newest updates --- ### πŸ“Έ Screenshot [](#-screenshot) [![FAQ Extension Frontend](Documentation/Images/faq-preview.png)](Documentation/Images/faq-preview.png) --- πŸ§ͺ Backend Enhancements ---------------------- [](#-backend-enhancements) - Clean backend with helpful label formatting \[e.g., `FAQ Title (πŸ‘ 3, πŸ‘Ž 0)`\] - Category selection is managed using TYPO3’s native `sys_category` with tree view --- ### 🌐 SEO-Friendly Routing Advice [](#-seo-friendly-routing-advice) For optimal URL structure, you are encouraged to write your own custom site configuration using YAML. Alternatively, you may refer to the following example: ``` routeEnhancers: Category: type: Extbase extension: CkFaq plugin: Pi1 routes: - routePath: '/{slug}' _controller: 'Faq::list' _arguments: slug: category - routePath: '/{slug}/page-{currentPage}' _controller: 'Faq::list' _arguments: slug: category currentPage: currentPage - routePath: '/page-{currentPage}' _controller: 'Faq::list' _arguments: currentPage: currentPage defaultController: 'Faq::list' aspects: slug: type: PersistedAliasMapper tableName: sys_category routeFieldName: slug currentPage: type: StaticRangeMapper start: '1' end: '100' requirements: product-slug: '^[a-z0-9\-]+$' limitToPages: - 2 # Replace with your actual FAQ plugin page ID ``` --- ### πŸ“ TODO [](#-todo) 1. Turn ON/OFF the entire Rating feature, so that FAQ can be used with or without rating system 2. Configure use of Bootstrap 5 CDN only if it is not available in sitepackage 3. Enable rating system based on logged-in frontend users. 4. Make the plugin configurable to allow update of rating data in real time or via batch processing (important for high-traffic websites). --- 🧰 Technologies Used ------------------- [](#-technologies-used) - TYPO3 CMS 13.x - Extbase & Fluid - Bootstrap 5 (via CDN) --- ### ❀️ Support the Extension [](#️-support-the-extension) This extension thrives with **active sponsorship** to stay updated in the TYPO3 ecosystem and remain compatible with future TYPO3 versions.
