I second this; I've tried a lot of FAQ modules and scripts only to find none |
| 6 |
of them suited my needs. Actually, Wiki's don't follow them either, but get |
| 7 |
closer to them. |

I use MediaWiki on a couple of sites to check if it is a viable option for |
| 10 |
both general site administration and FAQs. The main issue with Wiki's for a |
| 11 |
FAQ is that the manuals themselves aren't grouped together automatically, so |
| 12 |
you need to link each of them from an index page (or category page) so |
| 13 |
people can browse to them. |

I wouldn't rely on the search functionality of wiki's, they work, but aren't |
| 16 |
meant for FAQ searching imo. |

PS If anyone knows of a good knowledge base manager with wiki-like editing |

features, drop me a note :) |
