WordPress Forum Plugin FAQ

Can I allow only registered users to view questions?

Sure. The plugin includes access credentials for who can view questions, or who can view answers. You can define this that only user who are logged-in can view the questions and answers. For more information, please check this help document

Is it Possible to localize the forum for languages that don't appear on the list?

Language files are located under the /lang directory in the plugin. You can take any existing .po file and change the non English description to your custom language. You can then use a po to mo converter like in here http://po2mo.net/ to create the mo file. Here is an example of how the original English text and the translation look in the po file.

After creating these two files, copy them to the language directory. You are also welcome to send them to us so we can include them in the plugin pack.

Is CM Questions and Answers an SEO Friendly forum?

Absolutely. CM Questions and Answers uses posts for questions and comments for answers. That alone makes it an SEO Friendly forum because each question posted adds new user-generated content. Answers are then detected by search engines as a popularity measure, so the more answers posted for each post the better. Both the Questions and the Answers pages are built with SEO in mind, taking search engine indexing methods into consideration. If you are using a sitemap generator, please make sure to include the custom post type questions before rebuilding the sitemap.

Does CM Questions and Answers support forum email notifications?

Yes. CM Questions and Answers support email notifications in several levels:

1. Admin can set up email notifications in the plugin setting to receive alerts on new questions.

2. Question authors can receive notifications for answers posted for their questions.

3. Users who post answers can follow other answers.

Does CM Questions and Answers Use Custom Post types?

Yes. CM Questions and Answers uses a ”custom post type” for questions and WP comments for the answers. Therefore a real WordPress user needs to be assigned to each question/custom post. When using the WordPress search engine or other search plugins like Relevanssi, look for the CM Questions and Answers custom post type and add it to the search index. This is the same case for plugins which generate sitemaps.

Can users do live chat with the experts?

No. This plugin does not have a live chat feature. Users can only send private message query or ask questions to the professionals.

Does it have a free plugin version?

Yes. You can download the free plugin version Here but it does not include all the features.

How can I change the look & feel of elements on the answers page?

There are two ways to customize the style and appearance of your Answers page. One way is to create a template in a directory called CMA and place it under your theme folder. This directory will contain all the files copied from the plugin under views/forntend. You can edit single.phtml and index.phtml to make changes in the appearance of the question or answer pages.

The second and quicker way to do this is to locate the object on the page which you need to change and add it’s new definition into the custom css tab, which is found in the plugin settings. To locate elements, right click on the element and in the browser menu look for Inspect Element (Chrome).

Can I use social media login for my discussion forum?
