Accordion FAQ is the fast, accessible way to build an FAQ page in WordPress. Create beautiful accordion FAQs with the Gutenberg FAQ block or a shortcode, output valid FAQ schema (FAQPage JSON-LD) for Google rich results, and let visitors find answers instantly with live search and category filters.

Whether you need a simple frequently-asked-questions section on a landing page, a full searchable knowledge base, or product FAQs on a WooCommerce store, Accordion FAQ gives you a lightweight, SEO-ready toolkit that works with any theme — no page builder required, no jQuery, and no bloat.

Built for speed and SEO. Assets load only on pages that actually contain an FAQ, structured data is generated server-side for Google rich results, and every FAQ is fully keyboard accessible out of the box.

✅ Grows with you — search, filtering, analytics, voting, visitor submissions, and AI.

Add FAQs your way

Gutenberg FAQ block — an “Accordion FAQ” block with a live preview, full-site-editing (FSE) support, and one-click AI generation right in the editor.
Shortcodes — drop [accordion_faq] (or the classic [quick_faq]) into any page, post, or widget.
Page builders — native elements for Elementor, WPBakery, Divi, Bricks, and Beaver Builder.
WooCommerce tab — automatically add an FAQ tab to your product pages, with an optional per-product FAQ picker.

FAQ schema for Google rich results

Accordion FAQ outputs a single, deduplicated FAQPage JSON-LD block server-side so search engines can understand your questions and answers. Schema can be toggled globally or per instance — so if an SEO plugin such as Yoast or Rank Math already outputs FAQ schema, you can disable ours in one click to avoid duplicate structured data.

Accessibility first

Accordion FAQ implements the full WAI-ARIA Accordion design pattern:

Real <button> triggers with aria-expanded and aria-controls.
Arrow-key navigation, Home/End support, and visible focus states.
Honors the visitor’s prefers-reduced-motion setting.
A zero-JavaScript native <details>/<summary> engine for maximum compatibility.

Live search & filtering

Live search with highlighting — visitors filter questions as they type, with matches highlighted.
Search autocomplete — a suggestion dropdown searches your entire FAQ library (REST-backed) and jumps straight to the answer.
Category filter tabs — one-click filtering by FAQ category.
Expand / collapse all — reveal or hide every answer at once.
Sticky table of contents — an optional scroll-spy sidebar for long FAQ pages.
Pagination / “Load more” — keep long libraries snappy.
#anchor deep-linking — link directly to a specific question.

Styles & design

Six styles: Minimal, Bordered, Filled, Separated, Card, and Modern.
Icon styles: chevron, plus, or arrow, positioned left or right.
Accordion (one open at a time) or Toggle (many open) modes.
Light/dark aware, styled with CSS variables, and theme-overridable templates.

Engagement & analytics

FAQ analytics — track views and see your most-viewed FAQs.
“Was this helpful?” voting — collect helpful / not-helpful feedback.
Search-term analytics — see what visitors search for, and which queries return no results so you can spot content gaps.
Visitor-submitted questions — let users ask questions from the front end with moderation (pending review), admin email notifications, and layered anti-spam (honeypot + timing + rate limiting).
Drag-and-drop ordering — reorder FAQs directly in the admin list.
Analytics dashboard — 30-day trend charts and top-FAQ rankings.

AI, import & export

AI FAQ generation — describe a topic and generate ready-to-edit questions and answers using the WordPress core AI client (no third-party API key required).
CSV / JSON import & export — move your FAQ library in and out in seconds.

Developer friendly

Modular, namespaced OOP with a clean autoloader.
Hooks and filters throughout, plus fully overridable templates.
A REST API under accordion-faq/v1 (analytics, server-side search, submissions, AI).

Perfect for

SaaS and product FAQ pages and pre-sales questions.
Knowledge bases and support / help centers.
WooCommerce product FAQs and shipping/returns policies.
Documentation, onboarding, and “Getting started” sections.
Any page that needs a clean, searchable, SEO-ready accordion.

Shortcodes

[accordion_faq] — the canonical shortcode with full options:
category, `term`, `ids`, `style`, `mode`, `engine`, `heading`, `icon`, `orderby`, `order`, `limit`, `open_first`, `search`, `filter`, `expand_all`, `toc`, `per_page`, `schema`, `class`.

Examples:

[accordion_faq] — show all FAQs with your global defaults.
[accordion_faq category="billing" mode="toggle" search="1"] — a searchable “Billing” FAQ where multiple answers can stay open.
[accordion_faq ids="12,15,18" style="card" icon="plus"] — show three specific FAQs in the Card style.
[quick_faq id="12"] — classic shortcode: show FAQs in category (term) 12 (fully backward compatible).
[accordion_faq_submit] — render the front-end “ask a question” submission form.

FAQ custom post type

FAQs are stored as a quick_faq post type with a quick_faq_tax category taxonomy. Add your question as the post title and the answer in the editor, assign a category, and you’re done. Manual ordering lets you control exactly which question appears first.
