Custom Views

Yes, we need to write a filter that will add a view “slug” as shown in the example below. This code can either be written in a custom plugin or the functions.php file of your theme (or child theme if you are using a third-party theme).

This user-defined slug will show up in your divi faq modules when you select “Has Custom View” and then select an option from “Select Custom View”. Below is the screenshot for the same.

Shortcode

If you are using a direct shortcode, the following sample code can be used.

[df_faq_framework include_categories=” view_slug=’my_custom_faq_slug’ question_class=” answer_class=”]

View File

The sample view file is shown below. The variable “$attrs” will be available in the view file which will be attributed from the shortcode or the divi faq module.

Grouping FAQs by category.

  • Ensure that the Only show specific categories toggle is selected to ‘YES’.
  • Toggle Group By Category field to ‘YES’.
  • Note: Setting the Display Category Title field to ‘YES’ will add a category title at the beginning of the faq listing belonging to that category.

Refer to the screenshot below for details.
