FAQ Slider is simple to use. Follow the steps:

1. Install via the Joomla! menu Extensions->Install/Uninstall
2. Publish the plugin in Extensions->Plugin Manager (it will be listed as Content - FAQ Slider)
3. Choose an article where you would like the tabs/sliders to appear
4. Type in the plugin code with the correct syntax for use as below:

title depends on the settings in the backend. The default setting is to show articles from a category. In this case, title would be the category title or its ID.

Points to note:

• The other available simple modes are section* and module. title would be set in the same way as above.
• The text used for title does not have to be an exact match. top would match all top rated.
• If title matches more than one content source, e.g. 2 categories, all the articles from those categories will be shown.
• Ordering of the generated sliders/tabs is controlled by the plugin parameters and can be Joomla, Title ascending, Title descending, Date created ascending, Date created descending, Date modified ascending, Date modified descending. However, this may not work as expected if you have matched more than one content source.
• FAQ Slider will automatically insert appropriate CSS styles for the sliders/tabs but if you already have these styled, you can turn it off in the plugin parameters.
•  
• Section mode is explained separately in the FAQ Sliders Nested in Tabs
•  
• Advanced and expert modes are available which include insert, inline and html modes, please see the How do you use FAQ Slider? (Expert).
