   Hello, I installed the Quick and Easy FAQ plugin, and then followed this video. I do not get an accordion FAQ, rather the only thing that shows up is the first FAQ question and answer … and the question is hyperlinked.

   Great tutorial!

   My debugger complained about undefined variable $faq.
   Defined variable at begin of function accordion_shortcode() with $faq = ”;

   As well my version of FAQ plugin enters the value ’faq’ instead of ’query’ into the field post_type of the table postes.

   Adjusted line 23:
   ’post_type’ => ’faq’,

   It’s silly that you’ll have us install a plugin for a FAQ page and follow your previous tutorial on how to make that FAQ page, and then copy (essentially download) the plugin you made for this tutorial. So we’re essentially downloading 2 already finished plugins.

   I don’t think people come here to download 2 plugins, but rather to LEARN how to make a custom accordion menu of their own. I don’t see why I should follow this ”how to guide” when I can just download some other WP plugin that does the same job, if not better.

   And the fact that this plugin relies on the FAQ plugin seems quite unnecessary. Why didn’t you make a stand-alone plugin and make it dynamic? So you can use it for any content on any page.

     Hi Johan,

     Most our users are beginners who would find it difficult to copy paste code. This is why we made it into a plugin so that users can download and install it. If you would like to use the code method, then the code is here for you to study and use it in your theme or a site-specific plugin. Let’s us know if you need any help with that.

   How do I make it so that when I click the title it collapses – I see that it collapses when you click another part of the accordian but I am looking for the function to collapse when each title is clicked.

   thanks for the tutorial. I am very much new to coding and webpage design. I have followed instructions to pasting the codes to my notepad on my mac. Is there a different way to save the file other than in notepad as a php or js file into the folder? Also, could you please let me know step by step how to open FTP client (what is it btw?) and how to upload my-accordian folder to /wp-contnt/plugins/directory to WP website. Thanks so much.

     when I save the textedit file it saves as my-accordion.php.rtf. Is that correct?

     Svara

     • WPBeginner Support

       No. You need to save it as my-accordion.php Windows programs sometimes add this extension to your text file. Try using Save File As option.

     On Mac you have a program called TextEdit. For FTP see our guide on how to use FTP to upload WordPress files.

   The code screenshot you shared, does not look like the code we have shared above. However, the code in screenshot has HTML tags that shouldn’t be there. It should be like this:

   ’posts_per_page’ => ’10’,

   • Stefan 13

     This is pretty weird. Your comments had me baffled, as I was clearly seeing the code right there on my screen. I then realised that all those currency converter tags came from another one of my Firefox plugins, which dynamically adds a context menu to numbers in web pages – hence the source looked different.
     Thanks for your help!

   When I try to activate the plugin in WP 4.1, I get this error message:

   Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.

   Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ’<' in /home2/laurepc3/public_html/shala/wp-content/plugins/my-accordion/my-accordion.php on line 20

   Any ideas that may help with this?

   Svara

   • WPBeginner Staff

     The code you pasted has an unexpected character 10,

     Make sure posts_per_page is enclosed in single quotes. Make sure there is an equals sign before greater than sign and make sure there is a comma at the end of the line.

     Svara

     • Guest

       I don’t have that on line 20. What I can see on line 20 in the post above and in my file is this:

       ’posts_per_page’ => 10,
       Screen shot attached as well.
       So does the post above display incorrect file content?

       Svara

     • Stefan 13

       The code in my file does not look like what you posted for line 20, but it’s the same code as is above:

       ’posts_per_page’ => 10,
       ’orderby’ => ’menu_order’,

       Does that mean that the code in the article is out-of-date?
       Thanks for clarifying!

    What’s the best way of getting the CSS to work? I have a child theme with my custom css code. Do I need to do anything in that file since I don’t see any of the Google css.

    Svara

    • WPBeginner Support

      Chris the Google CSS is queued and only fetched when your FAQ accordion is displayed. Open the page containing your FAQ Accordion and right click then select View Source. On the view source page look for http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.9.2/themes/humanity/jquery-ui.css if it is there then this means you have successfully loaded CSS theme.

    I am able to get your plugin to work properly with the FAQ Manager but had some questions. It will only display 10 of the FAQs (which I presume is a default #). If I use the built-in shortcode that comes with the FAQ Manager plugin I am able to get the full list to display

    To display ALL: place [faq limit=”-1″] on a post / page

    Do you have any suggestions on how to handle this?

    Also, the FAQ manager allows for creating different lists by topic. Would there be a simple way to modify your plugin to make use of this?

    List all from a single FAQ topic category: place [faq faq_topic=”topic-slug”] on a post / page

    Great work otherwise!

    Svara

    • WPBeginner Support

      To display FAQs with topics FAQ Manager uses these parameters in the shortcode:

      [faq faq_topic="topic-slug"]

      [faq limit=”-1″] is quite self explanatory. It will display all FAQ.

      However, if you want to display more FAQ’s in the accordion you need to modify the query parameter in WPBeginner’s FAQ Accordion plugin, like this:

      // Getting FAQs from WordPress FAQ Manager plugin's custom post type questions
      $posts = get_posts(array( 
      
      // Increase posts per page
      'posts_per_page' => 50, 
      
      // Get only FAQs under a specific topic
      // faq-topic is a taxonomy 
      //topic-name is the name of topic you want to display
      
      'faq-topic' => 'topic-name',
      'orderby' => 'menu_order',
      'order' => 'ASC',
      'post_type' => 'question',
      ));

    This isn’t working for me quite as intended. Plugin activates successfully and the shortcode is being processed, but here’s what the output looks like…

    I opted to use the FAQ manager plugin with your code in order to fix the hideous styling the plugin spits out.

    But when it’s all said and done, here’s what it looks like. Any tips?

      It seems the list is not inheriting any styling info from jquery-ui.css, though I did verify that a link file to jquery-ui.css IS present on the page.

      Line where jquery-ui.css is included:
      Exploring CSS rules:

      How can this be?

    This has broken following the latest Wordpress Update. I can no longer get the accordion to display. Shortcode now only displays the text from FAQ manager.

18. Piet

    line 20 of your my-accordion.php file reads: ’numberposts’

    that function has been deprecated since…. a very long time.

    as you guys are in the business of giving tutorials to beginners, can you at least get the functions right?

    obviously this should be ’posts_per_page’

    I would appreciate some help with this. I am attempting to install on a 3.5.2 on a network site. Network Admin has the Plugin listed and Network Activated.

    However it is not listed in the sub-sites.

    Has this been tested with Network sites yet? It looks like just what is needed. Thanks for all your efforts with WPBEGINNER.

    Thanks.
