A Frequently Asked Question (FAQ) management application built with Django.

============================================================ Frequently Asked Question (FAQ) management for Django apps

This Django_ application provides the ability to create and manage lists of Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ), organized by topic.

This project is still under development, though several medium-to-large websites are currently using it in production. The plan is to get a stable version with a full test suite and documentation out the door in the coming months.

.. _Django: http://www.djangoproject.com/

TODO’s

Below are tasks that need done, features under consideration, and some reminders for the future.

  • Write tests for faq.

  • Wire up testing on travis-ci.org.

  • Write tests for haystack bits.

  • Write general documentation, and specifically,

    • The change of modified date field behavior. (Dropped null=True, now has a date upon creation.) Write migration if necessary.
    • Document removal of custom template name field on Topic. (The feature made little sense given the various URL/view setups.) Write migration if necessary.
    • Note supported versions of Python, Django, and Haystack.
  • Put documentation on readthedocs.org.

Features


* Create a better interface for ordering questions within a topic.
* Consider if/how to add ordering to Topics. (This is complicated because of
  site relations.)
* Consider making the requirement for ``django.contrib.sites`` optional.


In the future, when dropping Django 1.2 support
  • Update to class-based generic views
  • Move from Question.save() to model validation?
