Ideal FAQ PRO Package – The Complete FAQ Solution for Joomla!

The Ideal FAQ PRO package is the ultimate FAQ management solution for Joomla!, offering multiple ways to create, manage, and display FAQs on your site. It includes a powerful component, various plugins, and an editor button for a seamless user experience.

Included in the Ideal FAQ PRO Package:

1️⃣ Ideal FAQ Component (Main Component)

The Ideal FAQ Component is the core of the package, allowing you to create and manage FAQ sections effortlessly. It uses Joomla's native articles to display FAQs in an organized accordion-style layout.

Key Features:
✔ Uses Joomla articles as FAQ items (no need to create separate entries).
✔ Supports SEO & Schema.org markup, making FAQs eligible for rich snippets in Google.
Customizable design using HTML templates and CSS.
✔ Works with Joomla's publishing options, categories, and access levels.
✔ Supports multilingual content for international sites.

2️⃣ Ideal FAQ Content Plugin

The Ideal FAQ Content Plugin allows you to display FAQs inside any Joomla article by inserting a shortcode. Instead of relying on a separate FAQ section, you can embed FAQs within existing content, making it useful for product pages, support pages, or documentation.

Key Features:
✔ Displays FAQ categories or specific FAQ items inside an article.
✔ Uses Joomla’s default content system, keeping FAQs well-organized.
✔ Fully supports Joomla’s content formatting and styles.
✔ Perfect for adding dynamic FAQs to product pages, tutorials, or blog posts.

Note: Don’t confuse this with the main Ideal FAQ Component, which is a full-featured FAQ manager. The Content Plugin is for embedding FAQs inside articles, while the Component manages dedicated FAQ sections.

3️⃣ Ideal FAQ Editor Button

The Ideal FAQ Editor Button makes it even easier to insert the Ideal FAQ Content Plugin shortcode. With just a click, you can add an FAQ section to any Joomla article without manually typing shortcodes.

Key Features:
One-click FAQ shortcode insertion.
✔ Saves time when adding FAQ sections to articles.
✔ Works seamlessly with Joomla’s default editor.

4️⃣ Ideal FAQ Fast Inline Plugin

The Ideal FAQ Fast Inline Plugin is designed for users who need to quickly create FAQs inside an article—without having to create separate Joomla articles for each FAQ item. This is the fastest way to add FAQs on the fly.

Key Features:
✔ Allows FAQ creation inside an article, without using Joomla’s article system.
Lightweight and fast, ideal for quick FAQ sections.
✔ Supports basic formatting and styling.
✔ Great for single-page FAQs, quick help guides, or inline support questions.

Functionality
Simple but powerful - the best FAQ plugin available. You can go wrong with this extension.
Ease of use
It is super easy to use, leveraging articles and categories. The article title is the question; the article body is the answer.
Support
Documentation
Value for money
Super value for the money. Douglas' support ethic is an absolute value amplifier.
I used this to: We use this for every Joomla site we build. Have so for more than a decade.
Functionality
Since it can be used in articles and modules it's great for placing content here and there without getting in the way.
Ease of use
Templates will almost match any site. Maybe difficult to customize for the average user. Personally, I would pay for a color changer plugin
Support
Support is fast and courteous. The extension is so well made. I had one feature on my wish list and it was in the next release.
Documentation
There is so much documentation, you can save so much time if you just start there.
Value for money
Since most people view the web on smart phones, it is a fantastic value because they can see the titles of all your content at once.
I used this to: I use this for an educational website and blog. It is also great for explainers at the header of pages.
Functionality
Wow, finally a developer who thought this thru! Menus, modules, layouts and search plugin. The search plugin sealed the deal for me.
Ease of use
Came together very fast.
Support
Haven't tried it yet cause the interface is easy, so no opinion
Documentation
They could add some better pop up messaging when hovering over admin labels fields

Support
Amazing support from Douglas. I needed a small CSS customization on he responded TOO quickly! I was shocked because it was a Sunday morning.
Documentation
Could be better, especially if you need to customize the CSS but since Douglas answers quickly I rate it 100%!
Value for money
Inexpensive at $25 for the Pro version 6 months updates. I would have gone with the Lifetime Subscription IF it was not that expensive!
I used this to: For FAQs and it looks great on my site! I highly recommend iFAQ Pro...

IFAQ



Posted on 22 September 2014
I have used MooFAQ previously and recently updated to iFAQ. iFAQ now has a number of new themes out of the box which can be used to style your FAQ's. They are very good. I had a problem with iFAQ. Douglas responded to the problem very quickly and provided a new version of the extension which fixed the problem. Note that this happened over the weekend.



So in summary, a great extension, great support and Douglas the developer is a really nice guy who goes out of his way to help. You really can't ask for more than that.

Again MOOFAQ



Posted on 10 July 2014
I used MooFAQ in the past. I tried to find other (free) extensions with the same functionality, but did not succeed. Bought MooFAQ again and i do not regret it. And do not forget the great support!!
