Hey there lovely WA peeps!

Just wanted to share a cool plugin with you guys. I was trying to create a page that operated a bit like an FAQ in that it contained a list of questions you should ask as part of researching website building tools. Initially, I thought I'd have the list of questions, and then use jump links so people could easily jump down to the answer they wanted.

Well, after researching the whole jump link thing, and finding a tutorial on how to do it, I discovered it was a real PITA and barely worked properly or consistently (this seems to be a common issue).

So I wandered off in search of another way to do this without wanting to run screaming down the hallway, pulling the hair out of my head. Enter the Easy FAQ with Expanding Text plugin to save my sanity.

It's easy peasy to create an FAQ page (or something similar) with this plugin, where the body of the answers expand and collapse under the question. It works for any content, including images and things, so the potential uses are varied!

If you're not sure what I'm on about, you can see an example of this here: http://findyourfreedomtoday.com/website-builder-tool

Anyhoo, I hope this spares some of you unnecessary frustration or even gives you a new idea for your content :)
