There are multiple ways to implement a questions & answers block in WordPress. Here is one approach:
- Install and activate a Q&A plugin:
Login to your WordPress dashboard.
Go to "Plugins" > "Add New".
Search for a Q&A plugin (e.g., "DW Question & Answer", "CM Answers", "Sabai Discuss").
Install and activate the desired plugin.
- Configure the plugin:
After activation, the plugin will add a new menu item to your dashboard (e.g., "Q&A" or "Questions").
Click on the menu item to access the plugin's settings.
Configure the plugin's options according to your requirements, such as moderation settings, user roles, notifications, etc.
- Create a new page for the Q&A section:
Go to "Pages" > "Add New".
Give the page a suitable title (e.g., "Q&A" or "Questions & Answers").
Add any desired introductory text or instructions.
Publish the page.
- Insert the Q&A block:
Edit the page you created in the previous step.
Find and click on the "Add Block" button (+) to insert a new block.
Search for the Q&A block (the plugin you installed should provide it as an option).
Add the Q&A block to the content area.
- Customize the block:
Within the Q&A block, you can manage the display settings, such as selecting the number of questions per page, enabling voting, sorting options, etc.
Adjust the settings to match your preferences.
- Save and preview:
Save the changes made to the page.
Preview the page to see how the questions & answers block appears on the front-end of your website.
Remember that the steps provided above are general and may vary depending on the Q&A plugin you choose to install. Always refer to the documentation or support provided by the plugin developer for detailed instructions.
