[Plugin: WP Super FAQ] Cannot dislay individual FAQ category via slug

Hi Devsstorm,

I had the same problem. The mistake I made: I put the shortcode in the HTML version of the text editor and not the visual one. Changing this solved all of the problems you experienced as well.

By now you probably solved it but just in case anyone else is still having that issue: I also had the same problem, and I was using the Visual editor. What solved it for me was using the shortcode

[wp_super_faq show_category=slug]instead of [wp_super_faq show_specific_category=slug]

I can only guess that the author meant the word “specific” as explanatory and not exact syntax.

Actually ignore my post above. I thought it only listed the 1 category but I had hidden the category titles and that misled me to think it only listed the one.

What I did find was that my slug was writeen as: my_slug_here instead of my-slug-here (underscores instead of dashed and that was the issue. After correcting it, it worked fine.

The above suggestions didn’t work for me unfortunately, but I did figure out a fix: the code should look like this, [wp_super_faq show_specific_category=’category-slug’]

The original code, given by the creator of this plugin didn’t have the ” around the slug name… this is what fixed it for me.

One thing this doesn’t do is show the category name above the questions, but if you simply type it in above the code it works perfectly.

It didn’t solve the problem for me. Any other thoughts??

Same issue, I’ve tried every combination of single quotes double quotes… nothing works.

On my website it works with [qa cat=”categoryslug”]

Hi, i still have the same problem with showing only one category. I tried all the ways i could think or found on google (shortcode, visual editor, html editor)… It’s either not showing anything, or showing all my categories… any thoughts ?

Perhaps a way to duplicate the plugin? My problem is that I have to show different ?FAQs? in 2 separate pages..

By the way, here’s what my code looks like : <?php echo do_shortcode(‘[wp_super_faq show_specific_category=regime]’) ?>

Thanks!

Found it! Turns out my Easy Custom Content Types plugins was corrupting it. Only when I try to make categories though. Anyone had similar problem with these plugins and found a way to make it work?
