I would like to know how I can change the FAQ page on my forum. I know how to add questions. But can I alter the questions and answers in my forum to have it more personally customized?

Please don't double post unless its been 24 hours.

The only way to change them if you have phpbb2 or punbb with template editing.

It's a lot of code/work.
(depending on the number categories & items you want)

You can create your own HTML FAQ page and link to it.

Test-click the "zone3 faq" pop-up link on *this test forum
View the pop-up page source to see how much code it takes. How To Change the FAQ Page Guish2
(the listings are numbered 0 thru 38)

I can help you with this... are you good with Html/JavaScript?
...operating your admin panel-creating widgets & Html pages?

Alright then!

First... let's setup a collapsible faq mod.
Create an Html page titled collapsible_faq_js with this
Code:
function _CFAQ()
{
   this.lastOpened = '';
   return this;
}
_CFAQ.prototype.IsDisplaySupported = function()
{
   if( window.opera && !document.childNodes ) return false;
   if( document.getElementById || document.all ) return true;
   return false;
}
_CFAQ.prototype.getQueryVar = function(varName)
{
   var q = window.location.search.substring(1);
   var v = q.split('&');
   for( var i=0; i < v.length; i++ )
   {
      var p = v[i].split('=');
      if( p[0] == varName ) return p[1];
   }
   return null;
}
_CFAQ.prototype.getObj = function(obj)
{
   return ( document.getElementById ? document.getElementById(obj) : ( document.all ? document.all[obj] : null ) );
}
_CFAQ.prototype.displayObj = function(obj, status)
{
   var x = this.getObj(obj);
   if( x && x.style ) x.style.display = status;
}
_CFAQ.prototype.display = function(faq_id, isLink)
{
   if( this.IsDisplaySupported() )
   {
      if( !isLink )
      {
         if( this.lastOpened != '' )
         {
            this.displayObj(this.lastOpened, 'none');
         }
         if( this.lastOpened != faq_id )
         {
            this.displayObj(faq_id, '');
            this.lastOpened = faq_id;
         }
         else
         {
            this.lastOpened = '';
         }
      }
      return false;
   }
   return true;
}

var CFAQ = new _CFAQ();

if( !CFAQ.IsDisplaySupported() )
{
   var u_faq = window.location.href;
   u_faq += ( u_faq.indexOf('?') > 0 ? '&' : '?' ) + 'dhtml=no';
   window.location.replace(u_faq);
}

How many categories and listings are you going to have?
Are you going to use the default faq & add a few things?

Example:
Login and Registration Issues
Why can't I log in?
Why do I need to register at all?
Why do I get logged off automatically?
How do I prevent my username from appearing in the online user listings?
I've lost my password!
I registered but cannot log in!
I registered in the past but cannot log in anymore!

User Preferences and settings
How do I change my settings?
The times are not correct!
I changed the timezone and the time is still wrong!
My language is not in the list!
How do I show an image below my username?
How do I change my rank?
When I click the email link for a user it asks me to log in.
